More DescriptionUntil now, it's been a well-kept secret, but in fact, Supermom DOESN'T have a pristine house, immaculate polite children and a thriving professional life.
No, the real Supermom always leaves the office too early and arrives home too late.
She's also:
- Sending her sick child to school anyway, hoping the fever's not so high it will attract the nurse's attention
- Praying that multivitamins will make up for thechildren having breakfast cereal for dinner (again)
- Hoping her husband will be asleep by the time she goes upstairs, so she can get right to sleep
- Battling her arch-nemesis, the Stay-at-Home Mom in the PTA who keeps asking her to bake for the fundraiser
And that's the dichotomy of the working woman's reality-the twin enemies of time and guilt. Now that Supermom's secrets are out, her life would make a great situation comedy.
