Raising Kids
THE JOURNAL
Everything from the lab, in one place. Filter by topic from the menu, or just browse.
Every article on The Family Life Lab lives here. No sponsored posts, no reprinted press releases, no advice from people who have never been that tired. Just what has worked in my own house, and what has not.
Most parenting problems come down to four things, so the writing does too.
Sleep is where most families break first. Bedtime that takes ninety minutes, night wakings that never stop, a child who will not sleep alone.
Raising kids covers the behavior side. Tantrums, big feelings, school anxiety, back talk, and building confidence that holds up when things go wrong.
Peaceful home is about the system rather than the child. Morning routines, family rituals, mealtimes, and lowering the volume in the house without adding one more task to your day.
Parenting together is the part almost nobody writes about. Marriage after kids, mental load, fatherhood, and staying close to the person you are doing this with.
New articles go up regularly. If you want them in your inbox instead, the weekly letter goes out on Sunday mornings.
