REVIEWS
“No One’s the Bitch is a worthy, energetic workbook…Chatty and funny, it provides useful ideas (e.g., make small offerings) and sound how-to (e.g., greet each other when the kids swap houses). Fill-in-the-blank sections pose a defacement risk, though the positive tone outweighs it.”
These straight-shooting, truth-talking, soul-baring women have their
priorities right: When mom and step-mom are on the same page everyone
wins, most especially the kids! If more parents could do as authors
Jennifer and Carol have done, our courts would be far emptier, our kids
would be far healthier and and all of our futures would be brighter!
“The authors have it right – the relationship between mother and stepmother is the one that makes or breaks the wildly extended American families of the 21st century. That’s why we have to suck it up and make it work. This book is full of wisdom and practical resources to get you there.
Brave, bold and right on time, No One’s the Bitch has the potential to change how step- and blended families get along forevermore. Jennifer and Carol Marine show mothers and stepmothers how to put down the gloves, make peace, and become partners. A breakthrough from page one!
A plainspoken, helpful, and rather hip how-to book.
Finally! A must-read users guide for every woman involved in stepmother/ex-wife relationships. With humor, insight, and unflinching honesty, Jennifer and Carol take you through the process of making one of the trickiest relationships in our culture infinitely easier. Leave the snarking behind! This book will give you the tools to move on and glory in some newfound possibilities.
I wish I could have read this book when I was first starting out as a stepmom. If you’re stuck in the middle of a mom-stepmom conflict and you’re looking for a way to create a peaceful relationship, start with this book. If you’re thinking about marrying into a stepfamily or you’re in the early honeymoon phase of your stepfamily, this book might shine a light on some of the hidden landmines in stepfamily life and help you successfully navigate through them, before you step on one! This is a groundbreaking book that our families have been waiting for, for decades. Where other co-parenting books talk you through how to act differently on the outside, this book holds your hand through opening your heart to a transformation that overflows into your family and your relationship with the other house.
If you’re struggling to get along with the ex-wife, pick up a copy of this book and start reading. Even if it’s not a struggle, the book still has helpful tools to make sure you don’t ever fall into a hateful situation.
I’m blown away. In between the humor, the journal exercises, and the short quizzes is a book that will hit nearly every woman who’s in a mom/step mom relationship right between the eyes. I’m recommending this to every step mom I know and don’t know!
…A real eye opener. Has really helped me to see myself and my husband’s ex-wife in a very different light. Jennifer and Carol have more wisdom and insight than I’ve read from professional counselors and therapists. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone in a blended family or entering into one.
A humorous and helpful take on navigating the minefield that so often exists between moms and stepmoms.
A down-to-earth reference for moms and stepmoms who are endeavoring to create an amenable working relationship…. Original.
Stepfamilies now outnumber intact families. Two women decided to work on not becoming another statistic. The ex-wife and new wife have joined forces for the benefit of all.
