About this book

The paradigm-shattering bestseller that investigates how women have fallen into the trap of "total motherhood," and how that mind-set damages them and their relationships with their husbands and children. Manic cookie-baking at midnight. Play dates as complicated as peace summits. Mother-of-the-birthday-boy meltdown. Ambien nights and Ritalin days. No sex. No nights out. No sleep. Ever. It's madness. Now, in one of the most controversial books of the year, Judith Warner blows the lid off American mothers dirty little secret by interviewing those American mothers across the country to try to better understand what's wrong with the culture of American parenting.
