Mothers Affiliated with a Positive Parenting Program Report Rearing their Children Differently
API is featured in this study as described in the recently published research abstract "Mothers Affiliated with a Positive Parenting Program [Attachment Parenting International] Report Rearing their Children Differently" by Margaret M. Smith and George W. Holden for the Journal of Child and Family Studies.
Have a Group Offering AP Support?
API supports all groups wanting to promote API Principles. API is taking this further by now making all of its information openly available. To begin with, API is inviting all API Principle-espousing groups to list their group and meeting information. If you would like to include your group, click here to complete this form about your group and meeting times, also affirming the group supports the API Principles. Group events will appear on the API homepage, as well as the group searchable site at www.attachmentparenting.org/groups. Groups are offered an "API Principles support badge" to post on their pages to demonstrate their support to parents.
A listing in the API group and event does not imply API approval or responsibility for groups. Parents should validate group activity against API Principles and other resources found on the API website.
