Jul 30, 1997 | just when we started feeling sorry for ourselves again, in came this month's Drama Queen submissions, reminding us that our lives are really pretty calm and uneventful. After hours of pulling out our hair, we managed to narrow it down to the three worst tales from parenting hell. They may sound like cock-and-bull stories to you, but our contestants assure us that they are real. Tell us which contestant you think deserves the right to place the sparkling crown of jewels on her dirty, knotted head of hair. Register your vote no later than 6 p.m. PDT on Wednesday, Aug. 6. The winner will be announced Friday, Aug. 8, and will be treated to a free housecleaning session, courtesy of Merry Maids and Mothers Who Think.
