Help with Parenting and Access to Tips on Parenting from Top Parenting Experts!
I’ve been aware of parental controls that exist for the computer for some time. Because my kids are 10 and 12, I haven’t bothered yet to purchase any of them because I thought that the kids weren’t old enough to be an issue. However a conversation with a friend of mine the other day drove [...]
I had a delightful experience this morning. After years of working in parenting education, mostly teaching classes and doing some coaching, I just had my first experience as a client! My work with Dr. Gordon Neufeld was different; I had the pleasure of taking many of his courses, and asking him for advice, so he [...]
Awhile back I posted an article on Ezine Articles about the problem parents have with a lack of vision. I speak from experience, because when I began parenting I had no idea of the importance of holding a positive vision.

Until then I didn’t understand what was behind the way people say hi and nod to each other as they pass in hallways or on [...]
Do you find yourself wanting your kid to be more popular, as if that would be the magic wand to ensure their happiness and success in life? Even though I look back on my own teenage years and am glad that I wasn’t one of the "in group", I find myself wanting that for my [...]
Rob and I had a meeting with lawyers today. For the first time in years I was reminded of how close I came to going to law school (I was accepted to a number of law schools before deciding not to go), and how much a part of me would love being a lawyer. I [...]
Last night’s teleseminar/webinar with Vanessa Van Petten was so helpful! Vanessa is a wealth of knowledge, and she covered your questions ranging from how to monitor social media usage, to sexting, to how to coach your teen on difficult issues instead of turning them off by asking leading quetions. I learnt a lot and the [...]
