About this product

Product Information

Parents who are fed up with the pressure to turn their children into star athletes, concert violinists, and merit scholars-all at once!-finally have an alternative: the world of Slacker Moms, where kids learn to do things for themselves and parents can cut themselves some slack; where it's perfectly all right to do less, have less, and spend less. Slacker moms say "No" to parenting philosophies that undermine parents'-and children's-ability to think for themselves. They say "Yes" to saving their money and time by opting out of the parenting competition. And they say "Hell, Yes!" to having a life of their own, knowing it makes them better parents.In this witty and insightful book, author Muffy Mead-Ferro reflects on her experience of growing up on a ranch in Wyoming, where parenting-by necessity-was more hands-off, people "made do" with what they had, and common sense and generational wisdom prevailed. We should all take her sane lead!

Confessions of a Slacker mom
I bought the book because I saw Muffy on the Today show and I have heard good things about about the book on TV. I loved the book it was a good GREAT read it was something every mom should read, it makes you stop and thank about how we expect so much of ours self as parents. It also makes you laugh which we all need a good laugh.

I wish I'd had this 4 years ago. The writer has a way of speaking bluntly that captivates. Such a great book! Every Mom should read this!

Food for thought
a refreshing, fast read; gives a different perspective of parenting, along the lines of "less is more." Food for thought.
