Description: "This book isn't about raising kids. It's about raising moms. In a Pinterest-perfect culture, moms today sense an accelerated level of pressure to measure up. We assume other women are passing the test while we fail. So we either weigh ourselves down with guilt, or we become resigned--desensitized, even--to this so-called failure. God wants to free us from either extreme. Becky Kopitzke's The SuperMom Myth shares relatable stories, practical tips, discussion questions, and careful application of scripture, while examining eight personified "villains" or alter-egos of motherhood and how to conquer them: anger -- the grouch on the couch ; fear -- worry woman ; comparison -- fence hopper ; busyness -- calendar queen ; housework -- the maid ; exhaustion -- zombie mommy ; neglecting our husbands -- weary wife ; neglecting ourselves -- martyr mom"--Page 4 of cover.
Notes: Includes discussion questions.
