I Should Be A Mommy First


I used to listen to you when my mom had your show on in our car.  I've made mistakes in my life since then, and wished I had read the books you wrote that my mom gave me!

I'm now a single mom, and doing the best I can to take care of my son.  I'm a Dr. Laura Family member and eagerly read your daily emails and listen as much as I can.  I've noticed that the media has bombarded young women with messages that "we have needs too," and there are television shows that make sure to let us know that it's okay to go back to work or date because "we have needs too!" 

I get lonely sometimes, but I have your encouraging messages that I should be a mom first.  Thank you for continuing to press us single moms to be unselfish and put our children's needs before our own.  I need all the encouragement I can get, and you're always "in my head," reminding me to do the right thing.  Thank you!

Allie
