1. home front, population

usage: the civilian population (and their activities) of a country at war

Ahhh, and the truth shall set you free. Credibility is given to my daily struggle in the discovery of the true definition of home front. On the surface, it sounds like a term oozing with warmth, joy, a place of solace, peace. But no, it means war, a battleground nonetheless.

Protecting my home/ domain requires the experienced tactics of war. My husband and I are the civilians and we will take ownership of our home front. Consequences, wonderful and natural ones, are the method we shall use. Tactics rooted in the study of child development and degrees earned but have appeared all too little in our home. I offer these tactics exhibited this very morning in a series of confrontations or "learning moments" offered for your viewing pleasure. Stay tuned to my expose' on bringing order to my home front
