Your social media feed might be flooded with momfluencers trying to get you to buy the latest and greatest item or product in the parenting industry, but you might be asking yourself if a parenting course is really worth the investment.
Perhaps you might even feel a bit of mom guilt wondering why you even need a parenting course.
Shouldn’t this come naturally?
I have been a teacher of the deaf and hard of hearing for 10 years now.
I am still astonished at the statistic that 90% of deaf children are born to hearing parents but most of those parents will never learn to sign.
