Letting Go of Mommy Guilt: Minnesota's Woman Business Owner of the Year Shares Her Secrets of How You Can Raise Good Kids Even If You're Super Bu

GUILT! Society dumps a lot of that on moms. We feel guilty if we work outside of the home. We feel guilty if we're stay-at- home moms. We feel guilty if our house isn't immaculate. We feel guilty because the furniture isn't dusted. We feel guilty because we're not on the PTA board. We feel guilty if we serve frozen pizza for supper. We feel guilty when we have a meltdown. And the nagging question that's with us every day is "Am I a good mom?" We contrast our lives with the perfect moms we see on television and in magazines, the moms with the beds made, a nutritious dinner on the table, the laundry done, working a full-time job and still managing to take her tae kwon do class. This thought-provoking and humorous book is written by the Minnesota Woman Business Owner of the Year who later was also inducted into the MN Women Business Owners Hall of Fame. She raised two great children as a single mom while being an entrepreneur starting numerous business, and demolishes all those guilt thoughts if you're not that perfect mom! She shares her secrets of how you can raise good kids even if you're super busy, with her "Seven Keys" to sensible parenting in an inspiring, easy-to-read and practical book. Review by Ilse Armstrong, CEO Verified Purchase "This is a delightful parenting book by one of the busiest women I've ever met! She started businesses, raised her kids as a single mom, and still had fun with her hobbies. Lorelei's methods of raising her kids are very straight-forward and simple. There's none of the psycho-babble you often find in modern books on parenting, just straight talk about deciding what's important to your family and what's not--without feeling guilty."
