In China children as young as 3 attend boarding school, while the age for starting school in Denmark is 7. And if you're German, your child could spend their days surrounded by nature at a forest nursery...
We all want what's best for our children so why is parenting so different around the world? And what can we learn from our fellow parents? In his unique, witty and informative style, Mark Woods sets off on an international adventure to discover if any country has found the secret to great parenting (or at least found out how to make the little ones eat their broccoli) and if we can learn a little something from each other.
Find out:
* What the Buddhist pregnancy concept of Bardo is
* Whether eastern fertility potions and practices really work
* Whether Chinese boarding is a good idea
* Why India doesn't rely on the potty
* If the naughty step exists in Australia
* How Scandinavia always top education league tables
From bump to baby and beyond, Planet Parent explores whether mums and dads elsewhere have better potty training techniques than us, if the twos are terrible everywhere and whether all parents feel this knackered.
