Make way for the next set of Mom stereotypes. We’ve heard about soccer moms and yoga mamas…now there’s a whole new set, as set forth in a new book, Queen Bee Moms and Kingpin Dads, by Rosalind Wiseman. There’s also an article by the author in Parenting magazine this month.

The types of moms Wiseman says she’s met while on the lecture circuit range from Queen Bees, Sidekicks, Starbucks, Wannabes and Steamrolled Moms to Reformed Moms and Outcast Moms. A truly dazzling array. The idea being that by understanding how we fit into one or more of these categories we can understand our actions and motivations and how to change if desired.

The Queen Bee Mom reminds us of a certain nasty character and her posse in our book. Speaking of the book: well, by now it’s had more face lifts than Joan Rivers. We are getting ready for a submission to several publishing houses in the next couple of weeks.
