She said: “In the first hour, I’d had 50 downloaded. By the end of the day, it was 200, and now that figure doubles again every few hours."Every child learns differently, and I want to help parents tap into their instinct and overcome this misconception that it has to be a power-struggle, full of punishments and discipline.
