Welcome! This is the inaugural column of the savvy parent who engages in common sense parenting. Sure, experts (both credentialed and self-proclaimed) on the topic abound, but what do you, the parent who lives it day in and day out, think about the issues that have others stumped?
Stop by to voice your opinion, to see what works for other people, and also to leave your question! This is an interactive column, and you may see your questions featured next month!
