Matthias Jung - In Würde Eltern

Matthias Jung

"IN WÜRDE ELTERN - Gemeinsam gelacht ist besser als alleine verzweifelt"

Do you automatically push glasses away from the edge of the table? Do you often think about whether other people are dressed appropriately for the weather? Do you always carry wet wipes - and use them on adults too?

Congratulations - you're a parent. Which makes you a magician, an all-rounder, a superhero. You've mastered sleeping in impossible positions on a tiny sliver of mattress for years, you conquer endless mountains of laundry, and you can tell from the quality of silence alone whether it's peaceful or dangerous.

No question: we love our children, but they can drive us to the edge. Our homes are often in total chaos - and so are our heads.

Matthias Jung's feel-good seminar is a balm for the parental soul. The SPIEGEL bestselling author, qualified educator and "Family-Doc" offers practical advice for those who hit their limits in the many tough moments of parenthood - which, without exception, happens to everyone.

Drawing on a wealth of personal stories, Jung explores where the relentless drive for parenting perfection comes from and how we can let go of it. The focus is on small, manageable changes and a fresh perspective on ourselves (and our partners), so we can guide our children through every stage of development with more warmth and less stress. His motto: "Chill mal. Lieber glücklich als perfekt!" (Relax. Happy beats perfect.)

This talk, tied to his new book "IN WÜRDE ELTERN", blends pedagogical know-how, self-deprecating comedy and plenty of "I know that feeling" moments.

A live humor experience - mental load (and laugh) for parents of all ages!

"The evening did me so much good. The great chance for perfect parenting is that you have no chance at all. And we're all in the same boat. We're not alone. We're all fighting!" (audience member after the show)
