Children are an amazing source of potential. But they also come with some unique challenges. I often wish I’d been given a better training manual. Let’s face it, the entrance exam is pretty easy compared to the years that follow!

Over the course of my writing, I’ve covered topics of interest to parents — some of those articles and links are included in the resources link below. There are also some fun things, some thought-provoking things and some extra thoughts on ways to spend time with our kids and to help them excel. If you have more suggestions, I’d be happy to consider including them.

A NOTE TO PARENTS: I have provided ways for your children to contact me but I will not use the email address they give for anything other than responding to their questions or submissions. If they submit a joke, question or picture that I post on this website, I will use only their first name and age (if given). If you have anything you’d like to ask, I’d be happy to answer your questions too.
