It’s better to spend more time being a parent than reading about being a parent, but most of us like having a few reliable sources of parenting info and inspiration-and one that we heartily recommend is the Daily Parent Tip. With a sensibility that’s smart and selective, the Daily Parent Tip does a really good job of highlighting interesting parenting stories from around the web. The topics-ranging from “Raising A Good Digital Citizen” to “Are Children More Capable Than We Think?” to “12 Foods For New Moms” cover all ages and are as varied as parenting itself. The DPT has become something of a twitter phenomenon but if you’re not on twitter, there’s an RSS feed on their home page, or you can follow it on Facebook.
