‘Forget perfect parenting—it’s a myth. The real secret to raising happy, secure children? Being good enough.’ 

In this book, Dr. Kishore Das—a paediatrician, dad of two, and parenting expert with over 40 years of experience—blends science with heart to guide you through the journey of raising resilient, emotionally healthy children. He translates cutting-edge research into practical steps that fit real family life—messy moments and all. Think expert advice that feels like a warm coffee-table conversation with a trusted friend, not a lecture. 


Dr. Kishore Das is a seasoned paediatrician with over 40 years of experience caring for newborns, children, and families across the UK, Middle East, and India. A Fellow of both the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland and the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (UK), he has dedicated his career to advancing children’s physical, emotional and developmental well-being. 

Since 2005, Dr. Das has served as a Consultant Paediatrician at Manipal Hospital (formerly Columbia Asia Hospital), Bangalore, where he is known for his nurturing, family-centred approach to paediatric care. His work blends clinical expertise with a deep understanding of child psychology, early attachment, and the everyday realities families face. 

As a father of two, Dr. Das brings personal insight and empathy to his professional practice, helping parents navigate the challenges of childhood with confidence and compassion. Through his writing, teaching, and advocacy, he has become a trusted guide for parents seeking to raise emotionally healthy, resilient children in an ever-changing world.
