UBC study – Fathers and Chores
A very recent study out of UBC, soon to be published
in an upcoming issue of the journal Psychological
Science, reveals data showing that in homes where
fathers pitched in, daughters held broader career
goals.
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.

” It is the personal paradox of our time:
never before has there been so much
opportunity for families to plug in and
at the same time disconnect.

Mindfulness is a term used to describe a way
of striving to be more aware and present in
our day to day lives. We live such hectic lives
that being mindful helps us to slow down and
absorb the moments in a deeper way than we
normally might.Applying mindfulness to parenting
can bring many benefits to the parent/child relationship.
