The Canadian Society for Information Children is a non-profit organization and a registered charity, founded in 1979. We provide information, support and referrals to parents and caregivers related to the care and well-being of families with children 12 years and under. Our Parent Coach-Educators answer all Helpline calls; for areas outside of our area of expertise, we provide parents with referrals to other community organizations or resources related to the concern.
At Information Children we frequently hear
from parents who are wistful for the day when
their child can talk, or their child can walk,
or from parents who can’t wait for the day
when their child is toilet-trained or when
their child can read to themself.
Raising a young family today can be busy.

sharing as a social norm, they don’t
really embrace the principle until they’re
at least 7, according to the study,
published in the journal PLOS One.
