Lately, many of my conversations with friends have been on the topic of school.
Like how much do we have left, what was our major, are we going to go back and finish, or even finishing off master/phd degrees.
Which brought me to this point...
What about a school for how to be a parent?
OR better yet...
What about a major in college for being a Mom?

If I was the teacher this would be the curriculum:
Bandages/Pressure Points/Boo-boo kissing
Is it bleeding? Then you're fine.
Diapers: size, pricing, application of
How to ignore a tantrum?
Counting to 10 (or) Mom needs a time out
Arts & Crafts
Sewing
Chemistry: how NOT to mix hazardous cleaning products
Proper scrubbing of bathrooms, kitchens and baby fat rolls
Detective: who did it, who started it and how to punish
Making a budget
Sticking to a budget
Coupon clipping
Searching for the cheapest utilities
Government Assistance Programs
Throwing a Proper Party
Finger foods 101
Cooking: how to hide veggies in a casserole
Time to fire up the Bar-b
Taxi Travel and how to drown out the noise
How to cut hair in a straight line & use the clippers
Ironing (or spraying water on clothes and throwing them in the dryer for 5 mins)
Stain Removal
Expanding your Juice by adding water
Bread Machines/Crock pots
And this would only be the first semester...
Aren't you surprised at how much a mom/parent is supposed to "automatically" KNOW how to do?

Very clever Rachel. You should start your own MOM academy!
I think you have the makings of a very profitable business, and I'm not kidding! I can already see you touting your book on Oprah. ;)
