TALK is Good!

The candles are lit, the wine is poured, the mandatory chocolate dessert is standing by..

This is however, not a long awaited night of romance for Mom and Dad, but rather the scene for a gathering of "mom" friends for a monthly bunco night.

While the goodies are delicious, and there's even a chance to win a few bucks, the real reason women reserve that one special night on their calendars each month is simple: They need to talk. About preschools. Marriage. Summer camps. In-laws. Movies. And the near impossibility of balancing work, homework, piano lessons and cooking baking for teacher's appreciation day.

Some new studies back up this feminine need to bond and trace it to, of all things, a chemical reaction. Scientists suggest women respond to stressful situations with a release of brain chemicals that trigger the need to make and maintain friendships with other women.

So if your wife is too stress right now, she probably needs to unwind. Let her take a break. Or if this is you mom who are under stress or you think you are losing it... get somebody or your husband to watch the kids, call up your girlfriends and have fun.
