About Mary Van Geffen
You might have a Spicy One if they:
Do the exact opposite of what you ask while looking you straight in the eye
Swing from "I love you, you're the best mom ever" to "I hate you" and back again with power surges of deep emotion
Argue everything you say, even your personal experiences or indisputable facts
Fill every quiet moment with noise until you fantasize about building a sensory deprivation tank in your garage
Welcome! You're in the right place if you're tired of feeling like the only one failing because your child doesn't respond to typical “gentle parenting” strategies.
If you're exhausted from walking on eggshells around your intense kid's big hairy emotions.
If it feels lonely raising your child to be confident and connected rather than compliant and crushed.
You deserve quick parenting wins and tips from an older cool lady who’s been in your shoes, without the judgy side-eye.
You don't need more parenting rules.
