Parental Pals are passionate parents who believe in open minded education.
Their key elements: a global perspective, playful curiosity, confidence, respect,
good humoured common sense and partner families with a kindred spirit.

They see the benefits of cooperation. Here is where they meet.

Gran can!
Joy and glory of many generations !

Include your parents’ generation in your mindmap of options, their contribution may well be invaluable :

I. e.: Your kids are invited for a first visit to your new Parental Pals but you do not have the time to accompany them there - perhaps granddad can ?!

You cannot find a suitable au pair for your kids’ daycare. Possibly your Parental Pals have a vital and energetic grandmother who really likes the idea of going abroad to see new places from the safety of a home-from-home ?!

You’re host to your Pals’ children but business prevents you from doing all the things you promised - events, trips, excursions, ... ? Great thing your parents have the time and are happy to take over !

One side of the parents’ parents aspect is their connection to your children, the help and advice, the support they can give and the love that is between them.
But there is much more: What will remain with your children forever is their early perception of mature people and eventually of old age - your parents have the power to shape their perspective!

Experience, knowledge, physical and mental powers and of course age itself - all these things can only be as great as the personality behind it.

The overwhelming power of the young-at-heart !

Is retirement “waiting for life to peter out”? Or are the years beyond official working life yet another very attractive episode in an active and fulfilled life?

Artists like conductors, painters, authors or actors are known to carry on as long as possible, so are many scientists. They don’t have to work and it is not work - not in the tedious sense - they long to follow their interest and passion.

ParentalPal.Org is set to support concepts of education that allow young people a positive approach to all age groups they will encounter and go through themselves.

Education and sound surprise management skills ought to enable them to make their Tuesdays as good as their Sundays, to make life at 77 as fulfilling as it is exciting at 17.

It is our responsibility to pass on one of the most important pieces of advice:

“Don’t go wishing your life away!”

Mstislav Rostropovich, 1927 - 2007
