My Business Associates ;-)
Friends With Commercial Websites, Mostly Related to
Parenting
Several of my friends have commercial websites offering
products in which you may be interested, especially if you or someone you
love is parenting in the attachment style. I thought it might be helpful
to gather some links to as many of those sites as I could. Plus... what
kind of friend would I be if I wasn't willing to provide my buddies with a
little free advertising? ;-)
