API Parenting Support Survey: Parents Crave Local Support

August 7, 2010 The Attached Family 2 Comments

A 2009 online survey by Attachment Parenting International revealed that parents around the world are hungry for support and education in their Attachment Parenting choices. Results from the survey clarify API’s role in providing this support.

This API survey was conducted to gather anecdotal information and feedback from established API supporters. API was pleased to have more than 100 responses from busy parents in the brief timeframe.

The key point disclosed through the survey is that parents want to see API have more of a local presence. Parents very much appreciate all of API’s resources, but it is the local peer support that they crave. Moving
stories and more in-depth feedback is included in “How has API Helped You” at the end of this summary.

This is exactly why I came to this site – I was hoping for a parent support group in the Pittsburgh, PA area. None in PA at all. Local support would be very helpful for me as a new Mama.
