Forbes Magazine cited The 99 as one of the “Top 20 Global Trends of 2011" PBS just aired a special on it and even President Obama has mentioned it. So why do most American parents not know about it?...Read more

Parenting they say is the toughest job you will ever love. Whether you love it or believe you are now fully certifiable, getting through to kids about good behavior and bad behavior at times feels like the proverbial brick wall.
"But Everyone Drinks Mom!"
It starts in the nursery: Parents compare notes on their babies. What goes in, what comes out, length, weight and movement are the center of conversation. It carries over to the preschool years and beyond.
John Taylor Gatto's The Underground History of American Education is to the US Education System what Howard Zinn's Peoples' History of the United States is to US History. Both are a must read for every parent concerned about his or her child's education and future.
 
Sisters through adoption and artificial insemination, yet sisters all the same.
What it is. How it happens. What you can do about it.

Any child can run away at any time if the circumstances are right. Believe me, if they’re under enough stress, any kid can justify running away.

The Gift of Math: Why your children will thank you one day if you make them stick it out.
Parents get stuck in homework battles with their kids all the time. Either their children get distracted halfway through and want to give up, or they resist doing the work in the first place. As many parents know all too well, this resistance can often take the form of acting out behavior: kids will yell, start fights with you, or even throw a tantrum to avoid doing their work.
Newsroom 101 is created by Ron Hartung of the Tallahassee Democrat- grammar consultant and newsroom coach and Dr. Gerald Grow professor of journalism at Florida A&M University. Newsroom 101 has a total of 31 ten question, interactive quizzes. What we love about it is it teaches both when you answer a question correctly and incorrectly.
