We all know that one person who thinks they know everything, even when they haven’t experienced it themselves. Well, this story is about a 29-year-old mom with two kids, who befriends a 26-year-old mom-to-be. They don’t have much in common, but the experienced mom tries to help the soon-to-be mom, who has no family nearby. However, as the due date approaches, the mom-to-be becomes increasingly judgmental about the experienced mom’s parenting choices.
