A Book Review For Moms Like Me — Behind Closed Doors

August 1, 2017 by not your average mom 3 Comments

If My Kid Is Being An Asshole, I Want You To Tell Me

July 9, 2015 by not your average mom 76 Comments

In the past couple weeks I have found myself in a few different awkward positions where I haven’t quite known what the right thing to do is. In one situation, one of my kids got hurt by a friend’s kid.  Like struck in the head with a rock. Should I say something? It was an accident. I knew […]
