So You Drive a Minivan...

Rancho Palos Verdes Patch invites you and your circle of friends to help build a community of support for mothers and their families right here in Rancho Palos Verdes.

Each week in Moms Talk, our Moms Council of experts and smart moms take your questions, give advice and share solutions.

So grab a cup of coffee and settle in as we start the conversation today with this question:

It's perfectly normal. You have four kids and the only way your family will stay sane on even the shortest of trips is if you cram everyone into a minivan.

Regardless of the practicality, did you feel the slightest twinge of depression the day you handed over the keys to your sleek sports car for the hunk of metal now gracing your garage? 

Do you love your minivan/wish you had one? What do minivans say about the person driving them?
