Publisher's Synopsis
Scarlett is back and continues her tongue-in-cheek look at the trials and tribulations of family life. Many responded to Scarlett's first book, wondering if she had peeked into their homes. They wondered how any other family could possibly be living their same life. More reported that Scarlett's truisms gave them comfort to find out how similar family units act and react in their daily walk. Many believed they were the only ones to have: renegade siblings, health care insurers whose repertoire included a single phrase, "No, you are not covered!" Doctors who reluctantly granted 3.2 minutes of time usually in the hospital corridor, gas pumps that required both a degree in accounting and engineering. Phone companies and cable conglomerates that... well, let's not discuss those quite yet. Others learned that teenagers have an entirely different language. When they turn 121/2 no adult is privy to their secret handshake of words. It does not matter that they grew up under your firm hand and loving guidance, anything a parent says will go unheeded. Everyone found out that although they are Super Mom and Super Dad, their magic powers are no match for teenagers, healthcare providers, phone and cable companies, doctors, computer help desks or clerks with attitudes. ...but, Scarlett again proves that we are not alone!
