What's a good way to convince my parents to let me subscribe to magazines like Seventeen?
Posted on 30. Aug, 2010 by Eve.
I’m 14, a hardworking student, I have my priorities, and I play a variety of sports. However, occasionally I flip through a magazine like Seventeen and I find it interesting, so I’d like to ask my parents to let me get a yearlong subscription to see if I like it or not. It’s not that they won’t let me subscribe to magazines, but they might be partial to the fact that it’s basically a fashion-oriented one like Seventeen.
Any advice?

How do you stay current on the latest scientific research on parenting and child development?
Posted on 26. Aug, 2010 by Eve.
I considered subscribing to _Child Development_, a scholarly journal that publishes a lot of the leading research articles on parenting and child outcomes, but it’s subscription fee is horrendous. (Set for university libraries, not parents, I guess.)
Most magazines seem to give very short shrift to research. They interview so-called experts for ideas from time to time, but you can tell that these folks are rarely research scientists.
So have any of you found any good methods of doing this?

Best parenting magazine for ethnic moms/kids?
Posted on 25. Aug, 2010 by Eve.
I currently get "Parenting" and it is just so bland. Any magazines that offer a more diverse look at kids and parenting? I want to see real kids of all shades, hair colors and textures, and eye colors. I also would like a magazine that has more to offer than one boring article after the next. Any suggestions?
I’m Native American and hoping to hear from Moms from all backgrounds. Thanks in advance!

What is your favorite parenting magazine? And why?
Posted on 22. Aug, 2010 by Eve.
My favorite magazine used to be Parents.Now, it is Wondertime and Family Fun. I like Wondertimes articles and Family Fun’s articles for family projects and cooking recipes.
I started reading the magazines because I picked them up for free at the pediatricians office.

Gymboree coupon from November Cookie or Parenting Magazine?
Posted on 21. Aug, 2010 by Eve.
Does anyone have the coupon from either of these magazines that they are not going to use? I think it came on a postcard inside the magazine, and the code is for one time use. I will give best answer to the first person who responds w/a good coupon. I am at the checkout right now and cannot find my coupon. 
THANKS!!!

How long does parenting information remain current?
Posted on 20. Aug, 2010 by Eve.
The reason I ask is that I’ve been collecting parenting books and magazines ever since I got married, hoping that soon we’d have a baby. Well, I’m still waiting for my dream to come true so I’ve been faithfully holding on to them. But now, I’m wondering if they need to be tossed. Of course I know that the internet is full of resources and I try to stay current, even learning all about elimination communication and things like that, but sometimes it’s just nice to have things in print. My question is, being that my printed material doesn’t have the latest parenting info, is it of any value? I know I have to have the very latest information on things like safety, but what other types of info go out of date quickly? I guess another way to ask is this…moms – what’s the oldest parenting material you’ve felt comfortable using?

PA Childrens/parenting/education newsletters and magazines?
Posted on 04. Aug, 2010 by Eve.
I am having trouble finding childrens/parenting/education newsletters and magazines published specifically for Pennsylvania residents. Are there such things and would they be directed at specific counties? I’m interested to see what publications are out there so that I can suscribe to them or at least read some of them for information on before-kindergarten education.
