This site is here to help us help our kids. There are some great ideas on how to be sure our kids have the proper nutrition and exercise. This site deals with all of the issues we deal with everyday with our children, from emotions and behavior to positive discipline, from growth and development to medical first aid. This is a sure parenting tool you will want to take advantage of over and over again.
Here is the same site, however, this portion of the site is for the kids. Because it may have some "Puberty" discussion, we are putting this link on our "parenting page" rather than our "Tots 2 Teens" page so that it is up to the parent's discretion if they feel that their child is the appropriate age to learn about puberty. It is a wonderful site for your kids to explore. It teaches kids how to deal with their feelings, how to stay healthy, how to be safe around the home, and how to get along with their parents. It brings the whole world down to their level. It's a wonderful site. Just please use caution knowing that their is a small section of this site explaining a little about what puberty is.
This next site is through the same organization, but it is especially for teens. Once again, we are not putting this site on the "Teen Page" due to it's subject matter. We want parents to first view this site to make their own educated decision whether your child is of the appropriate age and maturity to view it's subject matter. This site talks about mental health and behaviors, sexual health, drugs and alcohol, as well as safety concerns, how to deal with bullies, test taking tips, etc, etc, etc! This site once again teaches our teens at their level of understanding. It goes directly into their world and talks directly to them about their concerns. It's a wonderful site that covers every aspect of being a teenager and deals with things that may be on our teen's mind that we as parents never even knew. Just please use caution knowing that their is some subject matters that may be too mature for a younger teen.
