Librarian Dad (BA, MLIS,) reads a lot of current events, opinion and book reviews on a daily basis. He is a typical Dad who sometimes yells, but also hugs, plays, takes his kid swimming, cooks everyone breakfast, gives mum plenty of breaks, and loves to read books with his kid.
Carly Sutherland knew everything about parenting before she actually had kids. Now she spends a lot of time trying to figure out what exactly she's doing, but she does get a lot of sloppy kisses along the way. She blogs about the learning curve of parenthood at http://topfiveparenting.wordpress.com.

Our parenting techniques and approaches come from different sources. We all have things we want to do differently than our parents did with us, things we want to do the same as our parents did with us, things we see friends do with their children that we try to emulate (or avoid at all costs), and things that we intuitively know we want to incorporate into our communication with our children. Our current generation is lucky to have such a vast array of research, theories and concepts to explore, choose from and incorporate into our concepts of parenting, though so much information can be overwhelming.

If you have been in Thrifty Foods, LifeStyle Markets, or The Market on Millstream lately, you may have noticed a new line of products in the baby aisle. Broody Chick is the brainchild of Steph and Michael Wilmott, two Victoria- and Sidney-based parents who have created their own line of baby and family skin care products, diapers and wipes. I spoke with Steph to find out the story behind the chicken and the history of her diapers.

When my son came home and told me that a couple of older boys were bullying him at school, it brought back my own painful memories of getting pounded by local schoolyard goons. One even broke my arm "by mistake".

With Mother's Day approaching and Father's Day close on its heels, this article, originally written three years ago, seems more pertinent than ever now that we are a mother and father as well as a couple and communication is even more important (and easier to make mistakes with). The article has been updated to include the changes in relationship that a baby brings.

For today's profile, we are doing some traveling. First we head over to Guelph, Ontario, where Chi Narita and Jason Fritch make their home with their 1-year-old son, Kotaro (Kota for short), and then we will be going back and forth between Ontario and Aomori, Japan.
