If you’re a parent, you know all about Nickelodean.  You’ve probably seen or at least heard more hours of that channel than you’d like to admit.  Nick is, for today’s parent, what Mr. Rodgers, Sesame Street and Barney, the Evil Dinosaur that taught children of the last generation some of the more and less profound lessons of life.  We may get tired of them, but they are a part of our childrens lives whether we like it or not. But Nickelodeon hasn’t forgoten us as parents, either.  They’ve launched a website devoted just to the needs of parents, called ParentsConnect.

All parents have questions about their kids, the way that we do our jobs as moms and dads and even silly little things like the perfect outfit to dress our kids in for a holiday.  some of these questions may not have much gravity but others directly impact our lives and the lives of our children. Many of us are lucky enough to have our own parents to turn to, but even then you might want to get a second opinion, and your experiences might help another parent out as well.

ParentsConnect lets you ask questions of other parents. Whether you’re looking for work in a depressed economy, trying to find the method of potty training that works for your child, are looking for teenage dating advice or are looking for help buying a home, this website can put you in touch with other parents who have been there and have something to share.

And hey, we’re parents.  We’ve been there too.  Each of us has a unique perspective on parenting.  Why not drop in and help another parent on the most rewarding, but sometimes difficult journey of their life.  Parenting is tough.  It’s easier with help.

If you’re interested in my particular views as a parent, look me up.  I’m registered on the site as AFather.  I figure I might have something to share after 6 kids.  Don’t you?
