Practically any woman can become a motherbut it takes a certain amount of creativity, humor, and cracking the book on discipline to be the best mom out there and to establish Mom Rules.
Whether youre a stay-at-home supermom who has to juggle softball practice, poopy diapers, and trips to the dry cleaners, or an Internet-dating single mom battling with two hormone-driven teenagers, this book offers useful insight and wise words on how to embrace the worlds best job.
Throughout this book, Jill explores the various stages of motherhoodfrom announcing a pregnancy to late-night feedings to second-child syndrome to empty nestingand provides comical anecdotes and sound advice on how to survive your teenage daughters dating outfits and your young sons potty mouth.
Mom Rules is the guide for the moms in your lifefor Mothers Day, for her birthday, upon the birth of her first child (or second, or third . . .), or just for her to read and laugh out loud over while parked and waiting in the school carpool lane.
