'Perfectionism is the arch enemy of mothers everywhere. Dr. Dunnewold gives us a wise and user-friendly book that helps us to say 'Enough!' to non-productive guilty, worry, and self-doubt--and 'Yes!' to the simple ways we can learn to take better care of ourselves and our kids.' Harriet Lerner, Ph.D., author of The Dance of Anger and The Mother Dance 'A reality check for parents, loaded with sensible advice and useful mantras, this book shows how jumping off the runaway train of Perfect Parenting is not only better for you, but teaches your child valuable lessons about real people living real lives. We're doing a Perfectly Good Job, and we are not alone!' Christie Mellor , author of The Three-Martini Playdate and The Three-Martini Family Vacation "Finally, a book for mothers that does not blame or judge, but offers insight, guidance, and a healthy dose of compassion.
