Parent/Teacher Conferences (Parent Tips)
Finger pointing in this day and age has become common place. While this may make one feel better at the time, it does little to rectify a serious problem. When we assume we know what the problem is rather than take the action to investigate and get the facts, we usually end up with "mud on our face" because as we all know, there are always two sides to any story. There is an appropriate way to proceed in any investigation but in school oriented situations, this particular procedure seems to work the best in most instances.

Not just another "new" parenting style!
I was bombarded with advice and information on becoming the perfect parent. Sadly, one informant contradicted the other. Finally, a friend referred THE BABY BOOK by Dr. William Sears, to me. Dr. Sears and his wife, Martha, are supporters of every aspect of Attachment Parenting, and having eight children seems to be enough experience to me.
