Now that I have reached my mid-fifties, I feel I’ve accumulated a lot of information —perhaps even wisdom —  to go along with my gray hairs.

Psychologist Erik Erikson says that at this stage in my life the well-integrated person wants to give back to society. That’s exactly where I am. I’ve learned so much over the years and I want to share it with the younger generation.

The trouble is, the younger generation isn’t so interested

That’s why I’ve set up my own website. I call it  unsolicitedadvice.mom. 

If you’ve got e-mail, you’ve probably gotten on some list that sends you messages (or advertisements) whether you want them or not. unsolicitedadvice.mom is a little like them. The advice comes whether you want it or not but — unlike those other websites — the advice we send is personalized. We don’t have one day when everyone gets advice about romance and another day when everyone gets help with their job hunt. We know who needs help with what.

unsolicitedadvice.mom is all about individualization. This is the website that takes the millenniums-old magic of a mother’s intuition and combines it with modern technology. It’s very 21st century, as the kids would say. (Never mind that they’d laugh if they heard me saying that.)

Which subscriber needs nutrition advice? unsolicitedadvice.mom knows.  Who’s thinking about buying a new car? unsolicitedadvice.mom knows. Is there a prom coming up and a high school junior who’s a little fuzzy about table manners? Count on unsolicitedadvice.mom  to find and forward just the right info before the dinner reservations are made. 

Subscriptions are limited to young people with the same last name as mine.
