I took a look at this site with my day job hat on (writer and journalist).
Put bluntly, it's just not very good. It has a spuriously fairly
professional 'look' and navigational features, but the content
doesn't match up.
I think the site owner is a well-meaning person, but that's not enough.
Websites - like newspapers, magazines, books - need editors. The
editors are needed to check for errors, inconsistencies,
inaccuracies, readability....all the stuff which has not been checked
out. This site desperately needs an editor.
I can confirm Lara is right about the 'lifting' - this shows naivete
at best and dishonesty at worst. Some of the stuff has come from one
of the big name US parenting sites - the type of site quite prepared
to sue for breach of copyright, I would imagine.
