Best Online Parenting AdviceBy Paulina Aubin
All of us want to be the best parent we can be, but we sometimes doubt whether we are doing what's best for our children. Good skills are learned; we're not born with them. But where should you go for advice and tips? There are hundreds of websites. Which ones offer the best resources? Take a look at these sites for valuable tips.
1. Gerber Foods, the baby food manufacturer, has an excellent website, http://www.gerber.com, filled with information on issues for those with infants to toddler-age children. Particularly useful is their Parents Resource Center, a 24/7 live help forum for questions and problems that arise in the middle of the night as well
as those in the more civilized hours.
2. Do you have a toddler that you're toilet training? Do you need to share your experiences and get advice on what you are doing right or wrong? http://www.pottytrainingsolutions.com is a website that offers easy-to-read advice on toilet training. Their series of helpful articles and take you through the entire process and the FAQ sections helps with basic advice.
3. A successful website relies on trust and who has better credentials on that the people who have brought us the PBS show, Sesame Street for all of these years. Their articles on http://www.sesamestreet.org/parenting give advice on toddlers as well as older children. Recent articles have included "How to Raise an Eager Reader" and advice on keeping your resolutions. There's also nutrition information and recipes as well as kids activity ideas. It's a great resource.
4. Parents of teenagers will appreciate the free tips on http://www.byparents-forparents.com. In addition to articles, there are self-tests that allow parents to measure the effectiveness of their techniques. Another highlight of the site is the open parent/teen forum that gives both teens and adults the chance to share their thoughts.
5. Work-at-home moms can sometimes feel isolated. Visit http://www.wahm.com to share ideas with like-minded moms (and dads). There are articles, an active forum, and even a section with job leads, featuring telecommuting positions and freelancing gigs.
6. And, finally, for those times when you need a lighter moment, there's http://www.parentinghumor.com, a well written website, dedicated to the lighter side of parenting.
Remember that you're not alone. All parents need advice sometimes. There are thousands of resources online. From workshops to forums, there's a wealth of information available for parents with children of any age.
