Attachment Parenting: Why invest in parenting?

Welcome to our new information about attachment parenting website. This website is still under construction.

We are trying to provide as much relevant information as possible. Relevant meaning anything to do with attachment parenting, emotional intelligence and cognitive development.

We believe that our acts as parents matter and we believe that parenting has a long-term impact. Long-term as in life spans of humans, not life spans of planets or universes.

Parenting is for most people the hardest and most demanding thing they ever do - and the one with the biggest consequences.

Considering how important parenting is for the future of humankind, we think it's worth investing a bit of time and effort into knowing what we parents are actually doing. And how we can do it better.

This guide will have pages on babies including sleeping, breastfeeding, and everything else including attachment parenting resources. There will be a toddler section - helping you deal with the most excruciating tantrums, eating problems and suggestions, sleeping issues, attachment parenting advice and lots of fun ideas. The breastfeeding section will deal with problems, the issues of public breastfeeding, extended or prolonged breastfeeding, weaning and what to do if you cannot breastfeed. This section again will link in to lots of attachment parenting advice. The child section will provide reading material for parenting attachment, guides to raising happy and healthy children and advice on how to foster good emotional intelligence. Specially gifted children will also get a mention! The learning sections will focus on how children learn, how the brain works, how children feel and deal with their emotions, dyscalculia and dyslexia and provide parents with lots of inspiration to help their children learn in a constructive and helpful way

2010-03-09 13:11 Sleep would be good ;-) 7 months today, and wondering if I'm ever going to have a solid nights worth of sleep. I never slept through before kids, but ..... thank goodness I have them in my bed. If it weren't for co-sleeping I'd have to actually get up, and if I didn't breastfeed I'd have to get up AND make bottles in the middle of the night. This way it's more like a self-service milk bar and straight back to sleep.
2009-11-17 22:02 I'm trying to be good With half a tub of ice-cream and a baby attached to me in a sling (www.bebecannelle.com) I'm trying to come up with some good ideas for this site. But then again I'm not so sure that 10 in the evening - without having slept for more than 2 hours in a row in months - is a good place to start. If only it were the thought that counts!
2009-05-02 12:25 Saturday at College Teenagers and puberty should be another topic. The hormones and their devastating effect on what was once a lovely, caring and sensible child. The obsession with what the "cool" people think, want and do - no matter that they will not go anywhere if they don't change their attitudes. No matter that none of them will thank my hormone ridden offspring for losing track and giving up what once were her biggest passions. It's absolutely maddening.
