Yes Mommy
The Mayhem and Madness of Not Saying No
Description:... What kind of mother doesn’t say no to her kids? One who is clearly angling for the Mother of the Year trophy – or an extended stay in a mental institution. After deciding to eliminate the words no, don’t and stop from her parenting vocabulary for one month, Amy Sprenger documents what life is like with her three young children. Spoiler alert: she’s still alive, so her experiment didn’t actually kill her. It just felt like it might most days. You’ll cringe when the kids turn feral in Whole Foods, sympathize when Amy hides from them behind the locked bathroom door and question her sanity when she consents to a day as Yes Wife. But throughout, you’ll laugh at Amy’s month of mothering missteps and misadventures. This is what happens when you stop saying no and start saying yes – to everything.
"Yes Mommy is a refreshingly honest look at the parenting challenges so many moms face. After reading this hilarious parenting experiment, you'll find yourself wanting to stop saying no and to start making your lips form that three letter word that can be so much harder to say." -- Lisa Steinke, author of Your Perfect Life
