'I Can't Trust Anything My Husband Says'
In the latest Confessions roundup, 15 parents vent about childish husbands, job hunting, cancelled hair appointments, and more.
When it comes to summer vacation, some of us wish we had a less structured work schedule, while others dread the vast open stretches of time without the year’s typical routines. This week in the Scary Mommy Confessional, we hear from parents in both camps. Of course, there’s also plenty that people want to share on other topics — like annoying phases, general exhaustion, and husbands who can’t be trusted. Read on for the full roundup.
