Hunt, Gather, Parent

What Ancient Cultures Can Teach Us About the Lost Art of Raising Happy, Helpful Little Humans
Book •
In Hunt, Gather, Parent, Michaeleen Doucleff travels with her three-year-old daughter to learn parenting strategies from families in Maya, Inuit, and Hadzabe communities.

She discovers that these cultures raise children who are exceptionally kind, generous, and confident without the common problems seen in Western parenting.

The book emphasizes a parenting approach based on cooperation, trust, and personalized needs rather than control and fear.

Doucleff introduces the concept of TEAM parenting: togetherness, encouragement, autonomy, and minimal interference, and provides practical takeaways for parents to implement these strategies in their own lives.
