About

Parenting is about giving kids two things: roots then wings. ~ Grandma

Parenting is the only job that’s designed to self-destruct. ~ Virginia Satir

These two statements best capture what Parent To Launch is all about.

Specifically, Parent to Launch aims to assist parents in the successful launch of their children throughout the various stages of life.

• Toddlers heading to school for the first time.
• Elementary kids going to middleschool.
• Middleschoolers going to High School.
• Heading off to college.
• Or just generally kids transitioning through life.

If you have children in any of these areas and are interested in these children one day no longer living under your roof – then this blog will be of interest to you. Parent to Launch is not about cutting all ties in families. It’s about creating self-sustaining people.

P.S. – Parent to Launch is only updated once or twice per week. Everything here will be insanely useful, at least that’s the goal, but there will not be a ton of postings per week. Please subscribe while you’re here in order to keep up with the irregular posting schedule.
