managing parenting forums is part of my job... a branch of my company is serving only parenting websites on design, coding and managing/maintenance... so we have to handle a lot of sites because more admins are interested to have great sites but have no talents on administration... this is what we call a "service for egos".. lol
btw, about your site... when we view the forum, there is a cronjob that takes forever to load, so it takes like 40 seconds to end loading a page from time to time... don't knowwhat it is, but it takes times..
you have good topics for a parenting site in general, is your site focussing on mothering or global parenting?!... (because some more topics related to the life as a mother would be great!)
