Parenting is tough, especially if you feel like you are all alone. Or maybe you’re just surrounded by people whose advice you value about as much as a wooden nickel.We’re not sure which is worse.

Either way, you have made it to The Sisterhood now. A place where judgement is forbidden and advice is born from the trenches, not delivered from a pedestal. Erin has five kids ranging in ages from seven to sixteen–four boys and one girl. Ellen has two teenage daughters.

You have found your place to laugh, commiserate, and soak up the comradery.
