We should have a young parents board?
This isn't an issue that directly affects me, I'm not a mother, but childcare is my area of expertise.
Being a young mum or dad is an increasingly common aspect of a young person's life. Yes, there are other young parenting forums about, but the same could be said of drugs, relationships, wellbeing, and all the other issues that affect young people, which thesite does deal with - so why don't we have room for young parents here? It strikes me as something distinctly lacking to thesite.
