(Kim here) Man, Angela! You are making these HARD! Guilty? I guess diet books and exercise books. I always feel guilty about those. So many to choose from.

(Angela here) Sorry, Kim! For me it’s parenting books that make me feel guilty. All that you should, you outta, you must advice that will determine my child’s entire future drives me crazy. So much so that with only a few exceptions (including the fabulous Ann Douglas) I don’t read parenting books anymore. My son is happy, healthy and loved. His academic future is bright and his social skills are terrific. That’s enough for me so I’ll just carry on bring a great Mum and stop wasting time on guilt-inducing books and instead spend more time with my kid.

(Peg here) Well, I feel pretty guilty every time I read my horoscope. Clearly, I’m not maximizing my full potential.
