How many parenting books do you find so good they're hard to put down once you start reading them? This was the experience Jacqui had when she read Eleanor Black's book "Confessions of a Coffee Group Dropout".Eleanor gives a refreshingly honest perspective of pregnancy and parenting and the expectations often felt by mothers in our modern society. She openly discusses how hard we can be on each other as parents and raises some great points about perspective. How important really is it to puree broccoli?In this chat, Jacqui and Eleanor briefly touch on parenting later in life, never getting anything finished, and balancing the pressures of family, home life and work.
