Parenting Inc.: Washington Post's Series on the Costs of Parenting

Washington Post writer and fellow mom Annys Shin has started a three part series on the costs of parenting. This week's issue is on Non-toxic Toys and the price of buying peace of mind.

She touches on the costs and issues associated with organic mattresses, lead-laden toys, cloth diapers, BPA-free bottles and the like. With the explosion of green products and the numerous recalls this is a debate that parents will probably continue to have.

The next issue focuses on Services, like Capitol Moms Motherhood Resource Service, that are designed to aid busy parents.
