It's not so much about 'motherhood' as it is about getting active and healthy. Sheesh, save the issues for your analyst.

Stealing that. Thanks.

I knew it! I knew that this story would drive ovaries into overdrive and make this guy's attractiveness and dateability jump. HE HAS THE BEST CHICK (haha get it lol) STORY. And it's verified on a blog for women. CHA CHING, he just cashed in on poon city.

Same here, glad to know I am not the only one who thought it was horrible.

I completely agree, I think Laura Beck had good intentions but went completely off base and then into irresponsible territory, it's a shame too, because people do tend to freak out when their kids do something "naughty" but they forget we are a country of uptight puritans....

I am also a busy mother, I have to pick up the kid from school, make meals, clean etc. But it's worth it? I don't know. I feel like I am exploited but in NYC you have to take whatever shots you can.

My thoughts exactly, and I hate to have to comment every time some negative shit is thrown at her. or him. or whatever, but I do! because it's so fucking trite.
