Could do better?
Uncertainties about
how to be a good parent, how to build better relationships with children, how and when to
discipline, and how to find time for kids when work pressure is great were all concerns expressed in the recently released report,
The concerns of Australian parents, researched and written by Joe Tucci, Chris Goddard and Janise Mitchell for the
Australian Childhood Foundation (
http://www.aaca.com.au/). Parenting doesn't come naturally to many people and most want help and advice on how to do things more wisely. The report is part of the ACF's
Every Child is Important campaign against child abuse. The ACF was formerly known as
Australians Against Child Abuse and the full report is at

Every Child is Important campaign is in the press info at
