We all have our own style of parenting - for some, being a friend to their child feels right, while, for others, being more of an authority figure is how they've chosen to parent. We hear from parents with different kinds of relationships, find out why it works for them, and talk to Beverly Cathcart-Ross, parent educator and counselor for the Parent Education Network and psychotherapist Barbara Burrows about why we define ourselves as parents the way we do. In our Reality Check, we learn something interestingly known as Gardening Baby Tips. Dad-to-be Steve Pratt expresses his confusion over the conflicting expert advice on baby care, and ventures his own theory that everything you need to know about child rearing can be found in the garden. Our How-to teaches being an effective long distance parent. Parenting expert Dr. Audrey Wise gives parents tips on being an effective involved parent when you're miles away. The Video Diary follows the Korman family as they embark on a one-week no junk food challenge. They thought it would be easy as pie but they discovered denial was harder than they thought.
