P.S.
Forgot to mention. New post up at PiP. Entirely frivolous. Go have a look, if you like.

Mary P is Not Amused
A lot of you think I’m some sort of paragon of patience who never loses her temper. Any of my family reading this are falling all over themselves laughing. (Stop it, you lot, I can hear you from here!)
But, just so you know I do lose my temper once in a while, go check out today’s Partners in Parenting.

Emma shows her Grit
There’s a new post up at PiP, featuring my youngest, Emma. I think you’ll find it entertaining. It’s part of our “True Grit” series.
True Grit, you ask??
True Grit posts are tales from the parenting frontier, stories featuring non-PC, creative, unconventional, and effective parenting techniques. Probably they’re techniques you wouldn’t openly discuss at Mom’s Group for fear of outraged gasps and disapproving looks. But they are techniques that worked for you and your child.
Do you have such a tale? We want to hear it! (If you’re curious, you can find a couple of True Grit examples here and here.)
[Of course, techniques considered abusive will NOT be included. Stories of spanking or any other form of hitting (though it is generally considered non-PC these days) will also not be included because spanking is very conventional, and strikingly lacking in creativity – been used since the dawn of time, don’t you know…]
So, please, email us at partners_in_parenting at yahoo dot com if you have a tale to tell!

Radio Show
A lot a bunch some one of you, asked if I could post the link to the show. I don’t think we’re the, ah, most polished interviewees in the world, but it’s not a bad start!
(The commercial host of the show is KidsDadsMoms.com, an organization whose mandate is to link children with the best toys and resources for their growth and development.)
You know, if I’m going to branch out into the commercial world, I’ve got to get less self-conscious about giving the plugs. So maybe I should take the parentheses off?

Radio Show
Guess who’s going to be On the Air next week? Any of you who are interested, check out World Talk Radio on Tuesday, September 19 at 4:00 Eastern Time. Someone out there stumbled over Partners in Parenting, and invited Laura and me to chat. How’s about that?
Or maybe I don’t want you listening in at all. My first step to public acclaim or my most recent opportunity to publicly humiliate myself? I’m a bit conflicted…

Vacation Auto-Responder
Mary is taking a few days off. In the meantime, you can might enjoy the latest “True Grit” post, always good for a chuckle, over at PiP.
We’ve also just announced a series we’ll be tackling on Sleep. One of the Big Three for toddlers. (Any guesses as to the other two?)
See you in a few days!
