Family Pride’s Blog

Technology, I like to think, isn’t completely evil. It has brought us a few good things, like the ability to send an endless barrage of our children’s pictures to friends and relatives with the click of a button. We can also learn about school closings through email - without ever having to turn on the TV or radio. And then, there’s Parentography.

What’s Parentography? Parentography is a diverse online community of parents who share honest advice and tips for family outings - whether it’s down the street or across the country. For example, you may want to make sure that the restaurant you are going to will provide high-chairs before you get there. Or, you just might want some easy play-date ideas near your home. Parentography has the answers! On the site, you can browse reviews by location, season or even the child’s age. And, because parents are shameless self-promoters, there are nifty features like the ability to upload family pictures and stories. Best of all, it’s free.

Notably, Parentography is for all parents, not just LGBTQ parents. But, that’s where we come in. Wouldn’t it be great to know which restaurants, hotels or locations are gay-friendly? And, perhaps even more importantly, to know which locations are not?

Let’s take the risk and guesswork out of our trips and excursions. When reviewing a location, let’s add tag-words to give other LGBTQ-parents a head’s up. Simply writing, “LGBTQ-friendly” is easy enough.

So, check out Parentography today. Post your family picture. Tell your family story. And let’s make this great resource even more powerful for all loving families.
