Read that article's quote from 'Mother Load' and watch the clip here!

I got to see the show yesterday afternoon in Richardson, Texas and came home feeling both vindicated but also enlightened. The very last line about wanting to be able to say that "these were the happiest days of my life" will not leave me. I'm going to try and apply this perspective to my life now, which is raising three little girls 6 and under. Thank you so much. I wish alll women who have kids or plan on having kids could see this.

Absolutely brilliant!! Thanks for bringing to life so much of what I have been experiencing for the past 7 years, starting with the "birth plan!" I felt like you have been watching me with hidden cameras and stealing my thoughts! It was the combination of "Perfect Madness" the book meets "The Far Side." The insights of Amy weere absolutely spot on! It was such a treat to be able to laugh at ourselves and the ridiculous corners of the world we have painted ourselves into. Thanks for bringing this to Phoenix. PLEASE COME BACK SOON!

**you mean my baby's not a genius?**

You may have missed this one while you were pumpkin picking this weekend: according to the New York Times, the Disney Company, parent company of Baby Einstein, will offer refunds to any consumer disgruntled that their babies have not actually become, you know, geniuses.

is shouting the new spanking?

I was interviewed for an article by Hilary Stout in this morning's New York Times on the new parenting taboo: yelling at your kids. Sure, we all know better than to hit our kids. But how many of us mothers yell at them? Often? And might that not be nearly as bad?
