"This book is a lifeline. Honest, practical, and deeply compassionate, Eli Harwood shows us how to heal ourselves so we can raise the next generation with more love and less baggage."

" Raising Securely Attached Kids is one of my favorite parenting books to recommend, and Eli does it again. Parenting isn't just about your child--it's also about you, and clearing the emotional baggage that gets in the way of connection. This book gives you the insight and tools to get out of your own way and build the secure relationships every child deserves."
--Dr. Mona, pediatrician and creator of PedsDocTalk

"Reading this book felt like sitting at the kitchen table with a wise friend. As a therapist and a dad, I trust this book. I found myself underlining lines, pausing to breathe, then trying a small change with my kids the same day. The whole tone invites you to keep showing up without shame. In every chapter you'll find a next step, a kind reframe, a way to try again. If you're trying to break cycles and build a sturdier bond with your kids, this is the book I'll be handing you. Warm, practical, hopeful."
--Matthias Barker, LMHC and founder of Estrangement.com

"The upbeat tone is the work's strongest element; no matter how potentially dark a topic is, Harwood is quick to remind readers that they aren't as helpless as they might feel. An enthusiastic and involving guide to helping yourself so that you can help others."
--Kirkus Reviews
