American parents are finding parenting much harder than they expected.

Over 80% of parents use internet search engines to look for parenting advice, but less than 50% of them found the results to be trustworthy.

Almost 70% of parents say they would use more positive parenting strategies if only they knew them.

So, where do we find these more positive parenting strategies that go beyond the prescriptive expert-driven “how to” approach of the internet?

Our research suggests that the baby can teach us most of what we need to know as parents, since children influence the way their parents behave as much as parents influence their children.

In fact, much of what looks like the effect of genes may really be the result of the way genes feed back on the environment.

Event is free, advance registration is required.
