| We have a lot going on at On Parenting right now, and so much going on in the world that impacts us parents. As we ramp up to head back to (please, please!) in-person school, the virus that sent our kids into lockdown is also ramping up in scary new ways. But this time around, we know what keeps our kids safe, right? And with that, hopefully, we can get back to work a bit, get back to life a lot, re-learn how to engage our kids and help them live a good life. As I prepare to pick my own kids up from their summer camp, I'm also working to figure out how to make the new school year work. Stay tuned at On Parenting for our Back to School issue coming both online and in print (Aug. 19). I hope we can answer some questions, inspire some thinking, and help you regain your footing a little. I know I need it. Is there a topic you're hoping to read or see here at On Parenting?
