Description
I don’t understand. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. I’ve got the Life Plan for our daughters right here, and the 2018 entry clearly states:
Harriet, age 25: stable career and ready to buy first home.
Sally, age 21: about to graduate from university and start career.
I know the plan was written a long time ago when the girls were very young. The ink has faded and my handwriting isn’t very legible, but I’m certain that’s what it says. Surely I’d remember if there was anything in there about Harriet taking time out to have a quarter life crisis, or Sally dropping out of education at the age of 17 and experiencing debilitating mental illness. They’re not the sort of things you’d put in a Life Plan for your children then forget about.
Clearly something went wrong. But what? More importantly, how should we update the plan to make it appropriate for modern life?

An interesting and informative read. This book was a refreshing read. As the mother of a millennial I found it reassuring to know that somebody else has struggled with some of the same issues. Kathryn Mortimer and her daughters have been really honest. Our children face a lot of challenges that our generation didn't. I am so glad that I read this book. It has made some things in my life make more sense.
Thank you to Netgalley for my copy.

Certainly a very different read. Reflecting on life as a mother to teenagers/twenties today. I'm 39 and its certainly different to when I was growing up. Definitely an eye opener.
ARC given by both NetGalley and Books Go Social for my copy. In exchange for my honest unbiased review
