13 Mistakes You Might be Making with Your Daughter-in-Law
Last night, I watched Monster-in-Law, where Jane Fonda plays the mother of a young man who falls in love and marries a lovely girl. Mama Jane is determined not to be replaced as the most important woman in her son’s life and proceeds to hilariously undermine their relationship at every possible turn. It all works out in the end, […]
If Midlifers Gave Advice to Their Parents
The Google universe is awash with humorous articles and blog posts on “Momisms” and advice we received during our boomer generation childhoods.

When Mom “Likes” Too Much By Liane Kupferberg Carter Okay, I’m going out on a limb here. I’m a middle-aged mom and I love Facebook.

Christmas. You’re Doing it Wrong
I love Christmas. It’s without question my favorite holiday of the year. Christmas is that time of year when Laura Ingalls Wilder, Jimmy Stewart, and Norman Rockwell come together and create a beautiful backdrop for happy people strolling harmoniously through gorgeously decorated malls full of ribbons, hot egg nog, and carolers, with love in their hearts for all mankind.
