A Forecaster book proposal

Your Children Will Remember This Differently
What Makes a Childhood Feel Loved—and What Parents Can Stop Worrying About
This proposed book would place parents' recollections alongside adult children's accounts to explore the distance between intention and experience. Drawing on published research and documented personal accounts, it would ask what made everyday life feel safe, interesting, or loved, and why the moments adults worry about may differ from those children carry forward. It would examine attention, family rituals, conflict, repair, and the pressures surrounding achievement. The goal is to help parents choose clearer priorities and listen with curiosity, while leaving room for different children to remember the same household in different ways.
