The Coming Crisis: Parents will receive text message and email advice on how to bring up their children after David Cameron said it was ‘ludicrous’ that people get more training in driving a car. A £3.4million website launched today gives tips on every aspect of child rearing, from picking children’s names to changing nappies and bathing babies. The NHS Information Service for Parents sends regular texts or emails with timely
information to parents. They sign up for the service by filling out a form online providing information such as the due date or child’s day of birth. The texts and emails will include information about how a baby is developing, how to keep fit and healthy in pregnancy, getting ready for a baby’s arrival, childcare options, money, benefits and where to find support
