About the author
Mumsnet makes parents' lives easier by pooling knowledge, advice and support on everything from conception to childbirth, from babies to teenagers.
Summary
Welcome to motherhood! The battle between sanity and sleepless nights, the juggling act of guilt and joy, the mystifying maze of decisions... And along this whirlwind adventure sometimes all we want is a good laugh, kind reassurance, thoughtful advice and a very strong gin and tonic!
At Mumsnet, no dilemma is too small or too bizarre. With a community of millions, the forums are a treasure trove of shared experiences. Packed full of relatable, and often hilarious, insights, Am I Being Unreasonable? contains wonderful wit and amusing anecdotes from the contributors to one of Mumsnet’s most popular forums. From dilemmas about wearing banana hammocks in the spa to toddler mishaps, school gate blunders and house guest horror stories, the pages of this book celebrate the small wins and fairly large setbacks of family life.
Perfectly curated for both new and seasoned Mums, this book is the perfect gift for anyone looking for a mix of laughter, shared experiences and a reassuring pat on the back. So, grab a glass and a chilled bottle of Rose, settle into your favourite chair and take a deep dive into the wonderfully unpredictable world of "Am I Being Unreasonable?" You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and most importantly, you’ll find a community of fellow travellers who’ve been there and worn the t-shirt – sometimes several times over!
