Have you noticed something missing? You won’t hear about it in the news. It’s been scrubbed from history books and called a “myth” in too many schools. “It” is the faith of our Founding Fathers – and it’s one of the best-kept secrets these days. Moms, you know about the founding documents, letters, and journals packed with faith-filled clues and quotes. Those records even recount outright miracles throughout America’s story. An internet search of “faith of America’s found

Homeschooling used to have a real public relations problem. Too many times in the past, these close-knit families were falsely stereotyped as ill-adjusted, hyper-religious, poorly educated – and, oh, yeah, lacking in socialization. Nonsense! They were outlandish claims even then – and thankfully now, these absurd charges have almost entirely fallen by the wayside. Good riddance! So, what about you? Are you already a home educator? Do you want to homeschool? We believe it’s t

Transgender ideology, indoctrination, lack of education, CRT, DEI, SEL and perverted sex education classes. It’s no wonder parents are fed up with the public school system! While school board meetings were once sleepy and uneventful, you’ve likely noticed they’ve received a lot more media coverage as outraged parents flood the meetings in defense of their children. Perhaps you’ve thought about wanting to speak up, as well, but you don’t know where to start. Or maybe the thoug

Psychologists, doctors, and even many TED Talkers agree on one thing. They’ve been banging the drum for years about the dangers of too much time spent with screens and the “scroll.” As moms, we know the lure of that hand-held glow as more information surfaces about its ill effects on young minds. What are we supposed to do? With the deceptive draw toward excessive gaming, social media, and those 15-second dopamine hits, it’s up to us to set the boundaries in our families with

Let’s face it. Life is stressful. Sometimes, we do a good job coping; other times, we find ourselves…well, not ourselves . We all face emotional setbacks, and the question is, how should you approach it? Is it a passing sadness (the blues), a dry and disappointing season (the blahs), or something worse? I should mention that my definition of the blues and the blahs are my own. No clinician is involved – so bear that in mind. It’s just a way to look at some differences and way

What are your impressions of Gen Z? We do tend to embrace stereotypes of them, Millennials, and even “Boomers.” It’s not really fair. Gen Z has been accused of excessive gaming and video scrolling, social media overload, and living too long in parents’ basements. It may be true in some cases. There may even be some among the government employees who seem to be missing in action as Elon Musk, and DOGE seek signs of life for millions of government workers. It’s not that hard. J

It’s an age-old question: Can you have it all? What is “it,” anyway? Is it an Instagram-worthy marriage, children, friends, career… with a social life? Is it showing men that we have just as much upward mobility, focused on a career path as we also run a home, manage the kids’ schedules, and still have energy for more? Some of you are already spinning those plates, and once in a while, one crashes to the ground. You must stop everything, grab the broom and dustpan and then re

Today, danger to our children isn’t relegated to a specific geographic location. It’s everywhere. We face perils right in our homes as the Internet, social media, and streaming shows bring the good, bad, and extremely ugly into our private spaces. Really, it was easier to avoid “the bad parts of town” than it is to dodge the strangers influencing our families through our entertainment choices at home. In some ways, the Internet’s offerings are especially insidious because the
