Children and Parenting
You will find many of them here and you will get help from people who are dealing with these issues on a day to day basis. Being a parent or carer means that you will have to confront many child-related problems; - some of which with you may never have had any previous experience.
Children and Parenting?
Why make this lens collection?
Yes, there were issues with the elder two, but they were generally the problems that most parents anticipate. However, despite the years of parenting experience I acquired during the late 70s, 80s and early 90s (there is a big gap between children number 2 and number 3) nothing prepared me for some of the issues my family has had to deal with since the birth of babies number 3 and 4.

I am a "natural" researcher. I find it easy (well most of the time) to research what I need to know on the internet and then use that knowledge to either help my family or get my family the help they need. However, not everyone has the time and/or the ability to do this. Since I joined Squidoo I have read some very good lenses written by lensmasters who are either qualified to write about their chosen topics or they, like me, have a lot of experience in dealing with the issues about which they write.
And I generally find that it is reading about other people's personal experiences that are the most helpful. So here is a collection of children and parenting lenses that have been chosen for their quality and the fact that the writers do have genuine personal experience that may help you.
This page was originally a Group
Special Group Award!
This Group was awarded the special status of Great Group by Lensmaster Spirituality. These awards were not earned easily and I am proud that this Group met the strict criteria! Outstanding Children and Parenting Pages
Must reads for every parent
All the pages featured in this Children and Parenting Group have been selected because they are quality lenses. However, every so often you find a lens that has such an impact on you, that you know you MUST highlight it.
The module will feature Children and Parenting pages that I think are oustanding and a must read for any parent, no matter what the topic.
The currently featured page is written from the heart. Please visit and if you are in the same position as Macs then I hope it helps you. If (like me) you are not in that situation, then it will really make you think.
Bullying
How to help your child if they are being bulied
In the UK it seems that bullying is on the increase rather than decrease. These pages will help you to identify signs that could indicate your child is being bullied and explain what you need to do in order to help him/her.
There is also a page that looks at the possible reasons as to why some children bully:

Do you have a Children and Parenting Page?
Would you like it featured on here?
I am looking for more exceptional lenses that will help other Lensmasters.
Note: Please do not submit your link if the lens is full of sales modules, particularly to e-books. I am looking for genuine personal stories that may help other parents who are experiencing problems that you have experienced.
Add your link here and I will visit your lens. If I do feature it I will leave a message in your Guestbook.
