Can I Afford Day Care?
Dec 26th
Today it is harder and harder for families to afford childcare. With the lack of income for mothers, it makes it almost impossible to work and still afford daycare for their children. Sometimes it costs more for the daycare service than the mother actually makes on her job.

Is It Time To Seek Counseling?
Oct 4th
How do you determine when it is time to go see a counselor or a family therapist? When a family starts having trouble communicating, it can stem from issues on both sides and can sometimes become a “catch-22.” The parents blame the child and the child blames the parents. A child may start acting badly because he is trying to get attention. When parents don’t know how to handle their child’s actions, a lot of tension can build up between the two. If the tension between them continues to persist, both can become very angry.
