From The Confessional: 'My Sex Drive Is Bigger Than My Husband's'
19 parents share what’s really on their minds
When it comes to parenting, there aren’t too many things you can say with total certainty. But this week, one mom confessed, “I feel like I’m the ONLY mom who’s completely overwhelmed” — and we feel completely confident in our ability to say that nothing could be further from the truth.

Read on for reassurance that you’re not the only one.
