Parenting With Altitude
Welcome to Parenting with Altitude, the official blog of Parent to Parent of Colorado. Why Parenting with Altitude? We chose Parenting, a verb, because our job of caring for, supporting and guiding our sons and daughters is never done, although it changes over time. Altitude is a nod to our elevation in Colorado, but it can also refer to the quality of a feeling or the heights (or depths) we reach in our parenting journey.
This blog is intended to allow parents to express their feelings and experiences about the parenting journey. Parent to Parent of Colorado welcomes all ideas and thoughts about parenting our sons and daughters with disabilities and special health care needs. We encourage a wide variety of world views and open sharing of honest thoughts and feelings!
