FOR PARENTS | RESOURCES
Help for parents is here.
Parenting can be difficult. Long days but short years, for sure. And parenting a girl comes with a unique set of challenges and opportunities. Add the complications that girls encounter as they merge with society and into adulthood, and things can get overwhelming. No matter how well equipped you think you should be, it’s extremely common for parents to feel overwhelmed and in need of help.
You’re not alone: OP helps parents by providing topical guidance and offering a third-party expert on girls. You don’t need to know the answers, or even the exact question, in order to be able to help your daughter. Just connect her with OP. And for you? We have resources to help you be the best parent you can be.
