Tara's new book:
Good Enough: A Framework for Modern Parenting.
Tara's new book starts with babies, and takes you through every stage of parenting, toddlers, middle childhood, tweens and teens, with three principles to guide you. It is a warm and compassion book, rallying against extremes in parenting and embracing the messy middle. It does not give parents new standards to meet or more things to do but instead supports parents to say enough is enough. Most of all she explains why this is best for children. It has been receiving rave reviews.
"Whatever stage of parenthood is dementing you, Tara Porter is your sanity-bestowing guru."
Caitlin Moran
"An empathetic and revolutionary approach to parenting."
Julia Samuel
"Absolutely fascinating . . . I wholeheartedly recommend it. She's meeting people where they actually are . . . We all need it!"
Ella Mills on The Wellness Scoop Podcast
"An incredible book . . . I have recommended it to every single one of my friends with minis. It's all about finding that 'messy middle', not trying to be a perfect parent, and she is just phenomenal in how she guides the 'modern parent' from newborn to secondary school."
Chessie King
'A really useful guide. . . it's one of those books everybody should have on their shelf'
Gabby Logan
Tara Porter’s Good Enough is an all comprehensive book about good enough, kind and firm parenting.
Porter honestly talks about her own parenting and professional expertise. She does not shy away from calling out the inconsistencies, soullessness or the unrealistic expectations of many parenting tips, and common practices in our modern world.
I enjoyed her focus on love, support, joy, kindness and firmness, being good enough and acceptance of change.
Even when I did not 100% agree with her on some very minor points, she managed to encourage me to think or keep reading her suggestions and analyses.
Very strong and engaging book that makes you feel okay to be good enough.
