    About this ebook

    The funny truth about parenting looks at parenting from the point of view of Black Mother and a single parent at that. I left in my comparison of Dr. Spock vs Mr. Spock, I'm a huge fan of the original Star Trek. The book dicuss the New Generation Parenting which is absolute Madness going on out there in the U.S. What happen to the rite of passage? I'll tell you, our children refuse to leave home and take care of themselves. We have at least two generations of adult-children that believe becoming a manger at Burger King or McDonald's truly means they are going places. We lost the basic parenting skills that parents as young as fifty years old are the last of a dying breed that were taught Respect! What I see happening all around me is a Call to Arms, it's time for parents to take back control of there children. The book discusses the age of Time Out, the deep relations between parents and children titled the Revolving Cycle, Racism and so much more. The book weaves in and out of different subject matter and wraps up with All about V, a secret monologue between mother's and daughter's and finally, Being Born Black in America. Parenting is a job with MANY skills and still no respect, no Academy award and No Heads UP. I'm just a mom, a single mom, a black single mom and now I get to watch my child go through the same journey raising her children. So why not have a few laughs out of it.

    J. Montana

    J. Montana is the artist and pen name of Jeanine Wright . She is a self taught artist, receiving an AAS in Art & Advertising Design at a New York City college. Her interest in writing started at a young age, encouraged by a single mother who emphasized the importance of reading. She read everything from the Bible to classical mythology, from Harlequin romance to S. E. Hinton and Hemingway to Lovecraft. The majority of Jeanine's life was focused on art, as writing to a back seat. While pursuing art she also took an interest in literature classes and creative writing, spending hours producing poetry. It would take a college professor that would start her on the path to penning her 1st novel. It took Jeanine 10 years to compete a finish manuscript because again writing would be pushed aside for her art and single-parenting. However, it would be the art an her love of creating that would join the two. The Pure Blood series came about in the 90's from a painting titled, 'The Guardian'. Jeanine is a huge fan of authors like, Stephen King, Harold Robbins, Sydney Sheldon and Jackie Collins who fueled an imagination already creative from being an artist. It is said, “To be a good writer, you must be a good reader.” To this day, Jeanine is still addicted to the written word She is the single parent of to adult children and two granddaughter. She currently resides in NYC.
