Are there parenting groups for parents of older children?

Most of the parenting groups I see are for parents of preschool aged children. There are a few school-run groups for parents of elementary school children, but once the kids hit middle/junior high school parental support seems to disappear.

I need more peer help now than I ever did when my kids were toddlers.

I would *love* to meet up with parents of other pre-teens and teenagers to compare notes and get advice, but these things don’t seem to exist. There is only the PTA and stuff like that where the focus is totally different and highly politicized.

Are there parenting groups out there that I’m missing, or do they not exist, and why?

    We’re not at that age yet, but that sounds like a wonderful idea! Parents certainly need support to survive the Terrible Teen years. You can try here:
    If there isn’t a group in your area, why not start one? Good luck!
