Goth Parenting: The Dark Joys of Raising Baby Bats

by Casey Gilly Author

This illustrated humor book celebrates the unique parenting experiences of goths. From infancy to age seven, it captures parents’ memorable moments, challenges, and rewards, including child-proofing tombs, feeding toddlers, and coping with perpetual Halloween.

Whether your goth child is a dark or light-hearted individual, this book offers something for every alternative parent. Being a goth parent is about acceptance, love, and self-expression, not just Victorian accessories and black clothing. Beautifully illustrated, it showcases diverse, loving goth families.

A great gift for goths at any stage of parenting, it’s perfect for moms, dads, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and caretakers with an offbeat sense of humor. Kids of goth parents can also find it as a Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, or birthday present. Suitable for goths, punks, witches, graveyard lurkers, reformed Hot Topic teens, proud emo crybabies, and anyone who admires the goth aesthetic and lifestyle.
