Do your kids run screaming around the house, refuse to tidy their bedrooms, misbehave in front of strangers and as they grow up, repeat the very mistakes you yourself made and tried to warn them about? Are you, in short, a bad mother?
As the Celebrity Mother of the Year is about to be chosen and as a new novel, 'The Bad Mother's Handbook ', is published, is it time to get realistic - to say that love is all you need - and to accept that a bad mother can be a good mother?
Authors Kate Long and Kristina Murrin join Jenni to discuss.
