This site started in the mid-90’s when a parent, in desperation, reached out to other parents by starting a message board for parents of difficult to parent children parents who are committed to helping our children grow and flourish.

Our forum offers a place to share experiences with other parents in similar situations: you are not the first parent to face these challenges and you will not be the last.

You will be amazed at the number of suggestions offered and the amount of support given.

Our diverse experiences has shown that there isn’t a “magic bullet,” but we are always comparing notes as we look for solutions and support each other along this journey.

We even manage to have a few laughs along the way!

Our advice is to take what you need, offer what you can, and leave the rest.
