Why Mummy Swears

I didn't realize that when I read Why Mummy Swears by Gill Sims it was actually the second in a series. The first in the series is Why Mummy Drinks. The story is set in London. Each chapter is a month of the year. Mummy has two children. The eldest, Jane, is 11 and is seriously hoping for a career as an influencer on TikTok. Her mother won't let her get a TikTok account until she is 13. Peter is younger and seriously attached to his IPad. Her husband is often traveling for work to exotic locations. So Mummy handles it all and she does swear quite frequently. I enjoyed this modern take on parenting. I could certainly relate to why Mummy swears.
