HP ranks among top Parenting changes Parenting magazine is celebrating its 20th anniversary in their May 2007 issue. They included an article, "The biggest changes in the past 20 years: The advances and trends that have shaped family life, for better and worse". The list includes things like the reduced rate of SIDS, a resurgence of breastfeeding, the internet and... Harry Potter? That's right, Pottermania has its place among the biggest changes and trends in family life in the past 20 years. No other book or movie (though Disney animation in general is included) graces the list. Quote:

First to post! Thats amazing. Harry Potter has definately been a big thing in many peoples lives. |
Wow,I had no idea Harry Potter shaped lives like that. |
I find it highly amusing that it ranks up there with all the other parenting and family changes and trends over the past 20 years. The internet was a major change/trend and probably helped to intensify the Pottermania. Actually, I wonder if HP would have made the list at all without the internet... *hugs SS* |
That's so cool.... and yeah it's awesome.... I can't wait for that book!!!! |
I think thats great as it really made kids to read again and for parents to read with their kids and its really nice to be noticed for it, JK came from nothing and really inspired ppl |
Great to see HP and JKR get the credit they deserve! HP really revolutioninzed reading for the better! It realed students back it to reading! That's a huge accomplishment! |
Its true |
It's true, isnt it? LOL, Harry Potter has become a household name! 20 years ago (heh, I was just born) there was no such thing, and now it's THE thing. Woot woot! Go Jo! |
Woaaaa! That's freaky!:lol: |
That's awesome! And it's all thanx to Jo! |

Too be honest, i'm really not surprised, Congratulations JKR. You've changed lives in ways i don't think many of us expected. |
:yes: that's right. |
This should be a wake up call for that woman who doesn't want HP in the libraries and such... |
That's really cool. Harry Potter has changed the world! ^_^ It is actually really amazing that children are reading books that are that long. Just cause of JK :) |
wow, cool! |
Wow, this just goes to prove how amazing HP and JK really are. |
Cool, Harry Potter is of course the best |
HP is truly amazing, and there is no way of saying otherwise :) |
Cool! |

Is there a doctor? Is there a doctor in the house? Give me your 800 page tome! |
