ParentFurther - A New Website to Assist Parents

ParentFurther is a new online resource for families that offers parents the step-by-step guidance and tips they need to raise successful kids. Instead of focusing on what is wrong with our kids, ParentFurther provides positive, strength-based parenting advice that highlights what is right with kids AND parents. With topics about young children as well as older teens, ParentFurther provides interactive content in the areas that matter most to families.
ParentFurther is the only online parenting community that helps parents do just that: parent further. Providing practical, everyday parenting tips and useful advice for difficult situations, ParentFurther helps parents:
  • Teach kids positive values
  • Build a strong family
  • Improve family communication
  • Set clear boundaries and enforce reasonable consequences
  • Find the support and knowledge needed to help kids grow up successfully
  • Focus on the things that matter most to family
The content and advice featured throughout ParentFurther is backed by research as well as a panel of family and parenting experts. ParentFurther provides parents the research-based knowledge they crave with the everyday tools they need to tackle family issues. It is the only parenting site based on Search Institute’s Developmental Assets®.* Forty common-sense, positive qualities and experiences that help influence the choices young people make. By combining the assets concept with the power of positive parenting, ParentFurther provides innovative and successful approaches to a wide variety of topics relevant to today’s families.
In addition to the more traditional “ages and stages” information, topics covered include:
Friends
Health and Nutrition
The Environment
Kids and Money
School Success
Siblings
Technology and Media
Work and Family
Chores and Responsibilities
Peer Pressure
Positive Values
School Problems
Caring Relationships
Connecting to Community
Family Communication
Family Fun
Serving Others
Spiritual Life
Alcohol Use
Tobacco Use
Bullying and Violence

Presenting a proactive parenting strategy, ParentFurther gives families the tools they need to build caring relationships and develop positive values, and it helps parents address not only the issues their children are dealing with now, but also the issues they will face in the future. http://www.parentfurther.com/.
