Making Memories : Reflections on Parenting from the Heart of a Father and the Head of a Psychoanalyst

Our children teach us much about ourselves, not all of which we necessarily want to learn. All we can know, here together on the floor of our children's souls, is that everything we do as parents matters. Finally, by the time we've the got the rhythm of the thing, it's over.

Making Memories documents how children give birth to their parents. It is about learning from our children and, ultimately, learning to say goodbye to them so they can mean it when they say it back to us.
