Review: Momster.com: The Online Resource for Moms Raising Tweens and Teens

Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift--are these names familiar? Chances are if you have a pre-teen/"tween" or a teenager in your house you know their songs very well. They are not only some of the most famous musical acts currently on the charts, but they are all teenagers. Pre-teens and teenagers are among the largest demographic groups in our nation. Forbes Magazine reported that "as the offspring of the affluent baby-boomer generation, today's 12- to 19-year-old Americans will possess $192 billion in purchasing power before this year is over, according to Marketresearch.com".  Teens also visit stores in greater numbers than any other age group and have more control over buying decisions than they used to." (Yes, you can blame your pre-teen or teen for your high cell phone and credit cards bills.) Raising a pre-teen or teenager is not easy in today's wired society and parents need help to be able to effectively navigate the often murky waters of the teen years. A wonderful resource and help for mothers is www.momster.com.

Momster.com is the brainchild of Family Circle, and it's the only social networking site for moms raising teens and tweens. Momster.com is a place to trade advice, share frustrations, and still have a good laugh with fellow moms who understand what you're going through.
