I honestly have no idea what parents did before the internet. Just as, I honestly never knew that this amazing corner of the internet existed. I affectionaltely call it the parenting corner. Where you can find all the answers to your child's needs, ailments, and reassurance you are doing a good job.
Walter is acting up and out of control, what happened to my angel? askdrsears.com to the rescue! I don't know if Walter has an earache or not and what exactly does Scarlett Fever look like? babycenter.com's symptom guide to the rescue!

I know most likely grandparents were the ones to share the wealth of childbearing knowledge but in today's world where grandparents sometimes live 1000's of miles away and the thought of calling someone in the middle of the night because you don't know exactly what rubella is.

And the fact that the internet doesn't get hurt feelings when you don't take it up on the advice is even better!
