The premise *sounds* good - helping housewives to find happiness with their lives, but what I was afraid of was that it was just going to turn into one of those "the man is the head of the household; long live testosterone!" books that seem so prevelant these days. Happily, Darla Shine seems fiesty, frank, and full of good ideas. Now, I won't kid you - she is quite vocal about her faith in god, the belief that women should be cute and slim, and feels that feminists are pretty much on the wrong track. I didn't find any of this overpowering, however; it's more like the occasional rant, that I would just skim over. In the end though, I think she makes some good points, and is definitely on the right track, even if her personal philosophies don't *quite* jibe with my own. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Says former desperate housewife Darla Shine to stay-at-home moms everywhere: What have you got to complain about? A modern-day guide to keeping house, raising kids, and loving life. Darla Shine was once a desperate housewife. Being at home with two small children and a husband who was rarely home was enough to drive her crazy. She left her high-profile job as a television producer after her son was born, while her husband continued to move up the corporate ladder. Like many of her stay-at-home-mom friends, Shine employed a housekeeper and baby-sitters so she could spend her time running to the salon, the club, and out to lunch. Then one day she was whining to her mother about how terrible her life was, and her mother yelled at her to wake up and stop being so selfish. It was just the wakeup call she needed! The desperate housewife craze of today is sending the wrong message to women and their children everywhere, says Shine. When did being a good mom and being proud to stay home with the kids go out of style? When did it become acceptable to cheat on your husband? When did mothers start dressing like their teenage daughters? Shine finds the standards of today's desperate housewives astonishingly low, and she has set out to teach women how they can be good mothers, look good, and feel good about the choices they make. Being a housewife does not mean you are on house arrest or can't be satisfied in your marriage. So step up, realize that you want to be home with your children, and embrace your life.
