Rating: 9

Description: A very witty book that explains the myths surrounding the idea of a perfect mom in a perfect world. Written by someone who has been there done that, this book will guide you to ways in regaining your sanity and being happy with being a good mom – not a perfect mom.

Review: Being a mom is challenging to say the least. When we put pressures on ourselves to be perfect and have a perfect family we are just asking for a disaster. No one nor no situation can be perfect. With the help of this book any mother will find that it’s ok to just be mom and that just being mom can be fun and fulfilling at the same time – even more so than being a super mom (which by the way doesn’t exist.)

By reading the funny stories that explain the myths of being a good mom, we see that everyone faces the dilemmas that come to pass as a mom in today’s world. With each parenting myth we will find ways to see that this is not working and ways to fix the problem so it will work.

By creating this book and the myths that are in it, the author makes it easy to understand and identify. That in it’s own makes it a great choice to help parents in need. It doesn’t stop there either.

One of my favorite chapters is on how to take care of you. As mothers we think that we should put ourselves last for the better of our family. This book shows how untrue this is. In the long run doing so, can cause more damage to the whole family. Looking out for mom doesn’t mean neglecting the rest of the family. It means giving ourselves a chance to relax, reflect and just be who we are.

There are many great chapters in this book – all filled with good advice and helpful ideas to make a family work. There’s even a chapter on how to reconnect with the other parent and keep marriage sane and happy through all it takes to raise children.

If you feel you’re at your wits end and don’t know exactly what to do before the big nervous breakdown or if you know someone who is there, I highly recommend getting this book. It is funny, helpful and most of all encouraging to everyone who has ever been or ever will be a parent.
