“Whenever I held my newborn baby in my arms, I used to think that what I said and did to him

could have an influence not only on him but on all whom he met.”  ~Rose Kennedy

Parent.org is a lobby group - we engage with government on issues of parenting.  We are

• a-political.  We favour no party but are interested in promoting any policies that help parents succeed.  

• non-affiliated.  We hold no religious affilations, or represent any doctrine.  Nor do we have any financial support or connections with any other group.

• non-prescriptive.  We don't try to define a "good parent", because such a definitiion is as meaningless as trying to define a good sportsperson, politician or business person.

Our goal is to create for parents what 20 years of government policy has done for business - turn an environment where all the resources and messages are failure focused into a success focused one.

We believe that in doing this one thing we will create a society that is prosperous, harmonious and filled with inspired, competent, creative citizens able to live together in mutual respect.

Once you have had a look around, join us!  It might be the best $10 you spend.

We are committed to New Zealand having the

world's best parenting environment
