March is Parenting Awareness Month

Last November I had an opportunity to attend the Parenting Awareness Michigan conference in Lansing and met many people that love helping children of all ages learn.  Parenting Awareness Month's slogan is, "Parenting is for a Lifetime."  I received an information packet that included:

• developmental charts for infants through teenagers
• tips for parents of teenagers of how to talk about drinking and sex
• a list of ways to connect with your children with simple activities, like having dinner together
• parent helpline and resources - great place to get information and referrals

Great information any time of year.
