Ctrl + Mum: The Parent Trap You Walked Into Willingly is a refreshing, heartfelt, and brutally honest take on modern-day motherhood. Written with wit, vulnerability, and a sharp sense of observation, the manuscript stands out as both deeply relatable and genuinely entertaining.
This is not a parenting manual, and that's precisely its strength. It's a survival memoir, one that mothers, fathers, and even adult children will see themselves reflected in. The chapters balance humour with raw emotion, making the reader laugh at one page and tear up on the next. The inclusion of the child's "diary entries" adds a tender and unique dimension, giving the narrative both intimacy and charm.
What makes this book publishing-worthy is its universality. It speaks to the chaos, guilt, love, and magic of parenting in today's hyper-demanding world without judgment and without pretense. It is storytelling at its best: simple, witty, and profoundly human.
