Publisher's Summary

The hilarious husband and wife team behind the massive online communities "Life of Mom" and "Life of Dad" share honest advice and contrasting perspectives about marriage and parenting with their millions of followers.

While a husband and wife's parenting styles may be worlds apart, they both have the same goal: to raise happy kids who feel unconditionally loved. Mom vs. Dad is packed with sidesplitting and vulnerable personal essays from the trenches of parenthood. In this book, Lucy and Tom Riles tackle relatable topics such as:

  • Is bringing a toaster oven to a 5-star resort tacky or genius?
  • Is it appropriate to lick your plate clean at a restaurant?
  • Does the expiration date on food really matter?

Illustrations of family life will also be included in this intimate and inspiring narrative about the challenges and triumphs of raising children. Mom vs. Dad is the perfect gift for anyone who needs a relatable couple to guide them through some of the toughest (and funniest) issues parents face today.

What the critics say

"Watching Lucy and Tom take the gloves off and bicker with one another from a place of love and respect is not only endearing, but HILARIOUS. Every fight or disagreement in this book is something that my wife and I have locked horns on more than once! Use it for a good laugh with your partner, topics of discussion over dinner with other couples or maybe even a way to address that ONE thing your spouse does that absolutely drives you nuts.... Mom vs. Dad opens the door to achieving marital bliss...maybe." (Adrian Kulp, author of best-selling We're Pregnant! The First-Time Dad's Pregnancy Handbook and founder of award-nominated parenting blog Dad or Alive)

"A true to life, humorous peek of his side/her side that will bring smiles and laughter to your heart. It confirms what I've always said, men are strange and women are weird.... You'll love it." (Dr. Kevin Leman, New York Times best-selling author of Sheet Music and Have a New Kid by Friday)

"Finally, Tommy and Lucy Riles, have come up with the definitive rule book concerning parenting. This unintentional sequel to the groundbreaking book The Joy of Sex could easily have been called The Misery of Kids. In this comprehensive and hilarious contest for the title of "head of the household", they lay out the terms for the ultimate battle of Mom vs. Dad. And although I'm still pretty sure I'm going to lose most, if not every argument with my wife, at least now I know why. This should be required reading for any couple who are thinking about having kids." (Jamie Kaler, actor, comic, and creator of The DadLands)
