Mommies Behaving Badly

Jack Dixon informs his wife Ruby that he has a career making opportunity on the other side of the country; she has doubts about relocation from New York to Portland, Oregon with their three kids. However, her hesitation vanishes when someone steals her car; the second time her vehicle has been stolen. However, the Portland burbs prove boring for the big city published writer and with Jack never home, she feels like a single mom raising her kids by herself. She struggles on meeting her deadline for her second book and her only pal in town is New York Ariel, hated by the local gentry who belong to the PTA. Still, Ruby is beginning to understand that stress can be anywhere as she realizes how she excels at mothering, writing, and friendship, but apparently realizes she don't know jack about her husband, but plans to seductively fix that. Ruby is terrific as the center of this fine family drama as she and her pal Ariel as they travel "The Mommy Track". Fans will laugh and cry at her antics as she struggles with raising her kids in a foreign land with an absentee husband while wondering if you can't make it in New York can you make it elsewhere especially when the suburban PTA cops are on patrol?
