Bringing Up Baby

By Millicent Bingham-Smythe

This is the very short, completely made-up and totally tongue-in-cheek guide to the toughest and most thankless job on the planet.

This is short.  It's only 31 pages.  That's not even a book, really.  More like a booklet.  So, no 1-star reviews saying "Hey, this isn't even long even long enough to be a real book!"  We know that.

This also isn't a real guide.  It's a made-up guide. Anyone who pays any attention to the advice given in this book is clearly an idiot.  So - once again - no 1-star reviews because this did not give you the guidance needed to become a better parent.  It's not meant to do that.  It's meant to be funny.

You have been warned.

BRINGING UP BABY

The very short, completely made-up, and totally tongue-in-cheek guide to the hardest and most thankless job on the planet.

By Millicent Bingham-Smythe

This is a work of fiction Because I have no idea what I’m talking about.

Any resemblance in this work to any living persons is a HUGE coincidence.

OTHER BOOKS

None yet. I mean, isn’t writing one invaluable book more than enough?

But I do have a website,

If I do write anything else, I’ll try to post something there.

This is so much more work than I anticipated.

FOR HYUN

FOREWORD

We are lucky enough to be living in a world of Specialists – everywhere you look, there are highly educated, incredibly experienced and all-together very knowledgeable experts in practically every field imaginable. In the realm of child-rearing, there are probably thousands of well-trained and extremely respected experts.

I am not one of them.

I’m not even a real person. Millicent Bingham-Smythe is a pen name.

But I certainly sound like a real expert, don’t I? In a vaguely British/elitist sort of way?

The real person who wrote this book, by the way, IS a mother. Of two girls. And they are both alive, and not in prison.
