I am now recommending Love Poems for People with Children to family and friends this book is so hilarious.
My only mistake was trying to read it before bed. I'd make it through about 4 or 5 poems and I'd be laughing so hard I would then have to wake my husband up to read it to him.
3 days later I have successfully not peed my pants going to bed and my husband is also read the book too.
Heed the title, if you do not have children this may not be the book for you. I do know that there are other titles by the author and I would highly recommend any of those to you although I have not tried them yet.

This was so funny! I would have given it 5 stars if it didn't SO MUCH play into the trope of hardworking mom and stupid dad.

I loved this book and I don't even have kids.
I've heard from so many couples about how relationships and romance changes the moment you have kids. This book is an honest, witty, and humourous depiction of the different stages of parenting (babies, kids, then teenagers).
As someone who doesn't have any kids, I thought the poems were still really funny and that this book would be the perfect gift to give to any couple with kids (I'm adding it to my xmas gift shopping list right now).
Honestly, many of these poems made me think of Claire and Phil Dunphy from Modern Family because of the relateably funny depiction of a typical family
