An intersting book that makes you think and laugh at the same time.

Even though some of the material is outdated, it is still funny. I really enjoy Erma Bombeck's sense of humor in her books. The last chapter is touching and tear jerking though ... as your kids grow up and your parents grow old (young entering their 2nd childhood).

This book of Erma's gave me hope to get through mid motherhood, my 4 teenagers were bouncing from every angle to drive me crazier every day. I read this book and found some peace for the rough patches, and laughter instead of the tears I was shedding all the time. So wonderful not to feel that I was the reason for any failure for my kid's lives! "Mike and the Grass" was my favorite vignette to open my heart and let peace funnel in. It helped me through my Empty-Nest Syndrome as the kids went off to adulthood one by one.
Great job, Erma!

This is not one of my favorite books by Erma Bombeck, but still fun to read.
