Mange forældre tror, at børneopdragelse er det, de gør, når barnet opfører sig dårligt. Men børneopdragelse sker hele tiden! Børneopdragelse er samtalerne over aftensmaden en tirsdag aften, det er stemningen i hjemmet, det er måden, du leger på, det er den, du er, når du skifter ble, når du hjælper med lektier, når du hyggesnakker. Det er der, du overfører lærdom til barnet. Psykolog og familieterapeut Hedvig Montgomery har 20 års erfaring med at arbejde med børn og familier. 

"Mit barn slog mig i panden med en sten. Mit barn kastede en taburet efter mig. En hammer. En pude. Mit barn slog mig i hovedet. Mit barn slog mig i hovedet. Mit barn slog mig. Sparkede.

Digtet beskriver familiens liv og hverdag, den indre og ydre smerte, der nager, fordi barnet bliver ved med at slå, og den kærlighed og skønhed, der blomstrer op mellem mor og barn på trods af alle udfordringerne.
