Partnership with Consumers

“Moms, Do you Need to Laugh? Do you need a break? Go to the link below. Watch the videos. They are irreverent but wickedly funny. In the Motherhood is guaranteed to make you laugh.” ~ Kirsten L. Izatt, The Estate Planning Law Group

“I've often thought, if scriptwriters want some fresh, funny, material they should check out the mom blogs. With moms living out loud, there's tons of funny antics and shenanigans in the blog-o-sphere. Well, some wise person figured this out. And they put a cool plan in motion. That plan is ‘In the Motherhood.’” ~ Lisa, Midwestern Mommy

“I kept smacking my forehead and couldn't stop laughing!” ~ Maman, Life in Monochrome, Singapore

“Thanks for the show... it's something I can give to my husband so he will understand where I'm coming from.” ~ ve3aht, In The Motherhood message boards
