A hilarious, tongue-firmly-in-cheek look at a promising new trend in parenting: being the boss!

In this day and age - when parenting books are a dime a dozen - it's easy for a mom to get confused. Do you go democratic or hover like a helicopter? Do you take a tiger-ish approach, or something more "hands off," like those French women who supposedly raise perfect children? Parenting author and humourist Kathy Buckworth has a completely different idea: Why not let the boardroom be your guide? In I Am So the Boss of You, Buckworth imagines a world where corporate policies and practices rule on the home front, and Mom is most definitely in charge!

KATHY BUCKWORTH is the author of several parenting humour books, including The BlackBerry Diaries: Adventures in Modern Motherhood; Journey to the Darkside: Supermom Goes Home; and The Secret Life of Supermom. She is the only two-time winner of the Professional Writers Association of Canada Excellence in Humour Writing Award, and her writing appears in national publications and on websites around the world through her monthly "Funny Mummy" column. She is the parenting expert on Slice Television's Birth Days and appears regularly on CBC, CTV, Global,TVO and CityTV. She lives in Mississauga, Ontario.
