Mothers & More host author of Mommy Guilt'
Chester The Southern Orange County chapter of Mothers & More will host author Devra Renner at their June Book Club meeting at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, June 27, at the Chester Senior Center on King’s Highway in Chester. Renner is one of the authors of “Mommy Guilt: Learn to Worry Less, Focus on What Matters Most, & Raise Happier Kids.” The author’s Web site, at www.parentopia.net, asks, “Have you ever felt that to be a good parent, you need to be superhuman? Like millions of parents, you’ve got mommy guilt: a feeling that your family is suffering because you can’t do everything.” The authors wanted to know what causes these feelings, so they performed a survey. The results point to many factors, the most common being yelling, lack of family time, work choices, and tension over school and extracurricular issues. Through practical tips, anecdotes, quizzes, and worksheets, the book illustrates how moms can fend off the guilt, and focus on what really matters. Mothers & More is a local support group for moms. All are welcome to attend, whether they have read the book or not, but registration is requested. For more information, call 497-8295 or write to JuneBookClub@aol.com.
