Jump right in to tell us the worst thing you've ever said to your child, the best thing you've ever done for your spouse, what you'd really like to tell your parents, the best compliment your kid has ever paid you, the longest your baby has ever stayed awake...and so on.

Jacqueline L. Salmon has been writing about suburban family life ("suburban" being a state of mind rather than a geographic location) for the last four years. She is married, has two children and (natch..) lives in the suburbs.

Jacqui's several lives as a mother have included stints as an at-home mom, working part-time and doing the mega-hour/mega-commute thing. She's also the co-author of three books on parenting and child development.
