Welcome to FAMRichmond.org

Children are a gift. But they don’t come with instructions. As parents, we’re left to figure out how to raise them, care for them, love them. It can be an overwhelming responsibility. But what if we didn’t have to do it alone? FAM was founded by parent education professionals who believe that asking for help is the sign of a good parent, not a bad one. We’re a resource of information, a source of camaraderie, and a helping hand for anyone who wants to be the best father, mother or caregiver they can be.

Be a Pinwheel Parent Parenting is a hard job; join us in reaching out to each other to make it a little easier. Become a pinwheel parent and receive periodic updates from FAM’s parenting experts. Remember, you can also always submit any parenting questions you have to FAM.

FAM organizes Circle of Parents groups for parents dealing with the same issues that you are—from toilet training and discipline problems to fussy eaters and teenagers expressing their independence. Email mmcginn@grscan.com to request information about a group forming in your area.
