What do you do? Read the book you've been waiting to crack open all day? Chat on the phone with a friend, glass of wine in hand, or go out with pals and share a whole bottle? Or, like many modern parents, do you get caught up in chores, busywork, and social media black holes? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn an original survey conducted for this book, 71 percent of parents said their free time didn't feel free at all, because they were still thinking about all the things they should be doing for their kids, their jobs, and their households. Rachel Bertsche found herself in exactly that bind. After dozens of interviews with scientists and parenting experts, input from moms and dads across the country, and her own experiments with her personal time, Rachel figured out how to transform her patterns and reconnect to her pre-kids life. In \u003ci\u003eThe Kids Are in Bed\u003c\/i\u003e, other parents can learn to do the same, and learn to truly enjoy the time after lights-out.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rachel Bertsche\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1524744018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781524744014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Plume Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.20w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/16\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2019 pg. 9","brand":"Rachel Bertsche","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43985482678527,"sku":"9781524744014","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6f15fd15-6973-4403-a57a-97b3dc0cc295.jpg?v=1683277817","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-kids-are-in-bed-rachel-bertsche-9781524744014","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
