How Can You Help Your Child Deal with Bullies?

Patch's Moms Council answers your questions on parenting.

Moms Talk is a new feature on Wantagh-Seaford Patch, part of a new initiative on our Patch sites to reach out to moms and families.

Wantagh-Seaford Patch invites you and your circle of friends to help build a community of support for mothers and their families.

Each week in Moms Talk, our Moms Council of experts and smart moms will take your questions, give advice and share solutions.

Moms, dads, grandparents and the diverse families who make up our community will have a new resource for questions about local neighborhood schools, the best pediatricians, 24-hour pharmacies and the thousands of other issues that arise while raising children.

Moms Talk will also be the place to drop in for a chat about the latest parenting hot topic. Where can we get information on local flu shot clinics for children? How do we talk to our children about the Tucson shootings? How can we help our children's schools weather their budget cutbacks?
