{"product_id":"9780786722983","title":"Confessions of a Slacker Mom","description":"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!","brand":"Da Capo Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47128254775536,"sku":"9780786722983","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780786722983_p0.jpg?v=1769906576","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780786722983","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
