- catalog abstract "Parents who are fed up with the pressure to turn their children into star athletes, concert violinists, and merit scholars -- all at once! -- finally have an alternative: the world of Slacker Moms, where kids learn to do things for themselves and parents can cut themselves some slack; where it's perfectly all right to do less, have less, and spend less. Slacker moms say "No" to parenting philosophies that undermine parents' -- and children's -- ability to think for themselves. They say "Yes" to saving their money and time by opting out of the parenting competition. And they say "Hell, Yes!" to having a life of their own, knowing it makes them better parents. In this witty and insightful book, author Muffy Mead-Ferro reflects on her experience of growing up on a ranch in Wyoming, where parenting -- by necessity -- was more hands-off, people "made do" with what they had, and common sense and generational wisdom prevailed. We should all take her sane lead! - Publisher.".
