Mom in need of Dr. Phil
924629
After seeing the author on the Today show, I ordered the book, and once I started reading I could not put it down.  I went to the same elementary school as the author's sister, although she was a year ahead of me, and I was not in the Highly Gifted program, but I do remember she had a sister who was on Little House, and that was a big deal back then.  It was very sad to read that these precious girls had to navigate through life starting at a young age with an obviously mentally unstable mother.  This would be a great book to read at the beach or on a plane.

He's an attorney. She's a stay at home mom,but also does talking tours for a small business excluvisly at the beach. Their son is a great kid, who spends his free time surfing with his friends. They attend a small church. Suddenly everything gets really busy. He has to travel. The tours need her more. But going to church on a Wednesday night somehow made the mom and son think more about God

I bought this book for my sister-in-law, who is one of the best stay-at-home moms I know.  She and her husband sacrifice a lot of wordly things so that she can be home with their little kids.  I read through a lot of this book before I gave it to her, and I like how encouraging Dr. Laura's words are to stay-at-home moms, reminding them that it's worth it because kids need their loving parent to be there.  Great book.

While I think it's nice that Dr. Laura wrote a book in support for stay at home moms, as a stay at home mom my book buying dollars are limited. (Who needs my money more, me and my one-income household or the Dr. Laura machine? I checked out this book but bought one by an an actual stay-at-home mom.

She and the many moms interviewed for the book are very honest about the struggles they have as stay at home moms. I could relate to them so much (too much!). If you're a committed Dr. Laura fan go ahead and buy this book. If you're not but are looking for a helpful book about stay at home motherhood I recommmend the other one instead.

I had already read these books and my 76 year old mom seemed interested in reading them too, enough to request that I purchase them for her, so I did.  Now she says she doesn't recall that request.  I am holding onto them in hopes that she changes her mind and DOES read them.  They would be terrific for stimulating her mind and imagination!  Of course there is a very good message for SALVATION throughout the entire series that I would love to discuss with her.

I gifted this book to my mother-in-love as recommended by a friend.  She lost her cat in recent months and moved to independent living and has been in a rut to say the least!  This book has been very encouraging to her.  I was able to get her the large print edition which was also a blessing.  Diane Clark

It is so sad that Sarah was never rescued by anyone.  It breaks my heart to think there are so many kids in the same situation & the system fails them. I've seen first hand how useless the Child protective services are & the system. So I see how it was the same for Sarah.  I wondered if Sarah's mom is a psychopath or some other mental issue.  It would be interesting to see comment from a professional about her.  I want to send a hug out to Sarah & wish her and her family all the blessings in the world.  After her childhood she deserves only good things now.

This individual went through a lot just growing up with the family, then to discover your mom now needs someone to personally care and look after her comes down on your shoulders like a ton of bricks. You don't want to put her in any type rest home. For certain it won't be the same personalized treatment and attention that you think only you can give her. A great writer, Thank you, John!

Sometimes losing your love of your life is beyond your ability to carry on.  I am sure many families are torn apart when the Mom dies.

Great report by a mother who lost her son to drugs.  She tells how she missed many things that should have been a warning. Sad but helpful.

My mom purchased 2 copies to put in her doctor's office and the library and one for each of her children! After caring for her mom for years as she battled with the disease, Jean Carper's book gave her hope that she can delay, or even stop, the progression of Alzheimer's in her own life.

I wish Dr. Phil had written this book years ago. I bought six copies to give to my grown children and several friends. I am a more astute woman now about the world.
