By Alta Alexander


Being a parent is many jobs rolled into one. However, the good news is that there are many online communities where people of all ages and backgrounds can share information and resources. Mom blogs can help with things like behavior issues, making money at home, or saving on everyday shopping.

Often no one is fully prepared to become a parent, especially if it is his or her first time on the job. Other factors to consider such as single parenthood, working while caring for child, or most recently. There are also a growing number of men who choose to take on the traditional role of mommy.

As the roles of a traditional parent evolve, one fact that remains the same is that this job can keep one person busy for 24 hours a day. Breaks are rare and one must be strong to hang in there. This sentiment is echoed in most blogs targeted to parents.

On the web are different styles of parenting blogs across the web. Some may work as a teaching tool for parents who need fast answers, as they may refer to articles or quotes from noted experts. Other popular themes are those that speak rather frankly about being a parent and the challenges one is likely to face. Then there niche blogs that accommodate lifestyle trends such as mixed race relationships, same sex parents, or dealing with chronic illness while raising a child are becoming more common every day.

Parents are often looking for new ways to save money on food, clothing, and entertainment for their child or the entire family. While streaming online video is popular and more economical than having cable television or going outside of the home, there are times when families need to get away. Everything has a way of adding up.

Here visitors normally find great leads for coupon websites and other places to find deals and discounts. There are even ways to eat free by becoming a mystery shopper or brand ambassador for various marketing companies that seek public opinion for research. Sometimes it just helps to read reviews on services and things that may be of interest.

Kids grow out of clothes constantly and it can drive a parent trying to keep up with fads or try to make items last through the school year. Retailers like to use these types of blogs to send out sale alerts, coupons, and other special deals. One idea that is gaining a following is the swapping of clothes and shoes that are lightly worn or have minimal damage.

Keeping kids entertained or occupied is one of the greatest challenges faced by parents today. Media images present on television, movies and the internet can have a negative effect on a child. At the same time, no one wants to be subjected to educational shows or reading all of the time. Mommy blogs can make great recommendations on programs that are suitable for a specific age group.

Then articles about money management, behavioral issues, and life changing events can act as a guide to help a parent remedy things at home. Often children do not know how to process this and may act abnormally. Other times, moms just like to have a place where they can chat freely.
