Needing an emotional boost of some sort, I waited for my husband to get home from work and then headed straight for Barnes &amp; Noble.

It is refreshing to read a book dedicated to cheerleading for stay-at-home moms. <br/> <br/>I liked all of the letters that Dr. Laura shares in the book that are f...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/63903669">more...</a>]]></body>

The thing I don't like about Dr. Laura is her tone.  She can come off as so condescending and arrogant that it can be hard to really get her message.

    <body><![CDATA[I felt this book was more for former working moms who are having a hard time adjusting to staying at home with their children instead of bringing in a pay-check. It bothered me that she opened the book stating her intent was not to add to the mommy-war debate, when in actuality, her book was full of...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/57080860">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I have mixed feelings about this book.  As a sahm I welcome any praise for the job that I do.  However, I felt she was very negative towards any other kind of options.  Yes, a mother's care is the best option (in my opinion) and I don't necessarily need someone to convince me of that and I believe t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/69214881">more...</a>]]></body>

I need to return it tomorrow and have found myself wanting to refer back to stuff that I now can't find :(  (some GREAT quotes I wanted to share in this review.)

    <body><![CDATA[My mom bought this for me for Mothers' Day and I didn't get around to reading it for a while because I felt quite secure in my decision to be a stay-at-home mom and didn't feel a need to be praised for it.  When I did start reading it I realized it was more than just praise; it was advice too, which...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/78340201">more...</a>]]></body>
