The genesis of "Not Your Mother's Advice" arose 10 years ago when family members were heading to university and she began reflecting on her experience; partying, dating, living with roommates, and yes, even going to class. Combined with her post-college life experience, what materialized was a comprehensive guidebook that tackles topics such as sex, alcohol, emotions, friendships, and even money management skills. Each chapter provides practical approaches to navigating the 100+ situations that arise when emerging adults transition into the real world.
Raw and funny, Jennifer freely shares her own,
sometimes embarrassing experiences, going where few parents dare to go
-- or even want to remember. While her kids will be appalled that she is
openly sharing her sexual awakening and strip club adventures (not on stage!),
she figures she’s earned the right to embarrass her kids -- payback’s a bitch.
Jennifer lives in Colorado with her husband and their spoiled dog, while their
three youngest children are off at university, presumably studying diligently
in the library.
