On The Challenges of Parenting

On the podcast this week, Caitlin Plant, Program Manager at Distress and Crisis Ontario, shares some insights into why parenting can be so challenging these days. Less community supports, smaller family sizes, and living in an age of information overload are some of the many stress factors parents are facing today. As well as exploring these topics, Caitlin provides some potential for resources for parents in need of support. If you need someone to talk to, ONTX and our Member centres are here for you.
