| We're continually reviewing new sites and adding resources, and appreciate your comments and suggestions. Suggest a link here |
| If you have a college student (or are one) you'll probably enjoy a few
excerpts from letters home. |
| Lifestart offers for sale videotapes and books on pregnancy,
childbirth, and parenting infants. You can get good information online,
however, in the summaries of every chapter. There is also a free "ask
the nurse" feature for your pregnancy and baby questions. |

students and their parents. It covers choosing a career, selecting a
college, obtaining financial aid, finding a job, and much more. |
| MPP is a California project which offers counseling for adults and
children who are underachievers. It's worth coming here for the list of
common characteristics if you suspect your child (or you!) may suffer
from this problem. |
| Mothers at Home is a nonprofit organization backing mothers who
nurture their families fulltime. They have published two books and put
out a magazine, summarized and available to order. Good support source
for at-home moms. |

high quality software. She offers reviews of children's videos and
CD-ROM titles for parents and teachers, and invites you to contribute
your opinions and support. |

age 20. This excellent source also contains information on gifted and
other special needs children, as well as academic testing, learning at

from many of the world's best known child-rearing authorities. Their

appropriateness, running requirements, and quality. There's an excellent
Views and News section where one educator and mom reminds us that no
review is absolute: some products she and her kids love were panned. |
| The emphasis here is on parents-to-be and parents of infants and small
children. Birth alternatives, breastfeeding information, and adoption
are among the many links offered. A very good source if you're
expecting. |

self-reliant, responsible human beings." They have links to
excellent articles with titles such as "Respectful Parenting"

aimed at problem solving for parents and for children), this site has
parenting tips and great summaries of books offered. Well organized for
access. |
| The people at Parenting Q&A offer "immediate answers to
parenting questions." Browse through their 35 categories or ask a
specific question. They really are a tremendous support for "parents
and professionals who work with families." |

offerings as Parents Picks (consumer response to products, books, etc.) |
