Mostly rich, white women telling stories about lessons their privilidged daughters learned at private schools. A couple good essays — Whoopi’s Goldberg, etc.

I liked this book because the stories are genuine, and I could definitely relate to what a lot of the mothers were talking about. I took a few of them to heart, because I lost my mother at a very young age, and I wondered if these were things that she might have told me. Another thing that I liked was the differences in thoughts, and ideas. I would recommend this book to others.

Some of the stories are ones to breeze through and others demonstrate so well how our daughters choose according to what they know or what we tell them is ok to try to know. There were a few gems in here, but maybe wait until it shows up at Costco, I'm guessing around Mother's Day.… (mais)
