So, your child would rather catch real flies than be a star on the baseball field? What’s the big deal? Gina Gallagher and Patty Konjoian, mothers of daughters with disabilities, sisters, and authors of a new book, Shut Up About…Your Perfect Kid!, join us to discuss the joys, challenges, and absurdities of raising “imperfect” children in a “perfect” world. With bumper magnets like “My Bipolar Kid Loves Me AND Hates Me,” they’re creating a Movement of “Imperfection” and inviting parents of disabled and other “imperfect” kids to come out of their messy closets and celebrate differences. Mom Matters is 10 easy-to-watch anytime minutes of practical ideas for more productive parenting.
