Yes, I like them enough to give them free advertising. From their blurb:
Finally, a newsletter
written just for
parents of girls…
“She’s only 10 and already worried about her weight.”
“How can I help her weather the storms of friendships?”
“She used to like math, but now says she’s not good at it”

To the universe: why can’t we find the same kind of publication for parents/people concerned about boys?
