Good idea, Donna! I am sure there are lots of parents out there who would gladly connect to others like themselves.
Calling All Parents

Well the way I see it is we all have at least 2 things in common - chess and children - and I know from being a parent how hard it is sometimes and you just want to talk to someone who has been there and done that :)

I can think of no job in the world that is at one and the same time as frustrating and rewarding as that of raising children.
There is a new group on the block and it is aimed directly at parents.
Are you a mum or dad?
Do you have children of any age from birth to 60+?
I'm calling all parents young and old to share your tips, tricks, stories and pictures.
We are not too bothered about playing lots of chess as this group is more about a place to talk to other parents and maybe give or receive advice.
Come and join us :-)
