Back from the CCFC Summit with so much to share

Back from the CCFC Summit and am at a loss as to how to begin describing all the wonderful work that is happening out there on behalf of our kids. Reports from me will trickle out over the coming weeks.

I didn’t want to leave Boston. It was probably the only time I’d be able to hang with so many like-minded people and sense no need to explain or, more importantly, justify this work.

I did bring back with me, however, a renewed and true sense that Parents for Ethical Marketing is a right and needed cause. I hope that the Corporate Babysitter blog can continue to educate parents and other concerned people about the damaging effects of marketing and media on our children.

And I finally met inspiring guy Josh Golin.
