Since its inception in 1995, it has grown into a parenting resource website in its own right. Although the IRC channel has died out, the parenting website lives on serving as a place for <I>all</i> parents to post their parenting problems, give solutions to other parents' problems, post opinions and submit parenting tips and tricks. <BR /><BR />The Parentsroom was among the first places on the Internet for parents to get together and share their parenting views and opinions. There are years worth of parenting information stored within the pages of this site, so please take a good look around!<br /> </p><CENTER><P>The #!Parentsroom Website was chosen as one of the top 500 sites on the web by HomePC Magazine AND has been listed in "Harley Hahn's Internet &amp; Web Yellow Pages."</p></center><br /> <IMG SRC="ani_news.gif" ALIGN=left WIDTH=88 HEIGHT=28 BORDER=0 /><P>Hi everyone!

They go through glasses as if they were disposable- breaking them, losing them and generally costing a fortune to replace, but what can you do? They have to have them.</p> <p><span class="read-more"><a href="/blog/cheap-prescription-glasses-love-em"><strong>Read more</strong></a></span></p><!-- google_ad_section_end --> http://www.parentsroom.org/blog/cheap-prescription-glasses-love-em#comments Mon, 08 Mar 2010 15:30:07 +0000 admin 4300 at http://www.parentsroom.org
