BOSTON - Parenting has its difficulties.
"We constantly say, parenting sucks! We constantly just say that," Karla Guerrero, the program director at First Teacher told WBZ-TV.
First Teacher is a non-profit in Roxbury that's helping parents become better teachers for their children who haven't started school yet.
They are called First Teacher because they believe parents are a child's first and most important teacher, brain builder and advocate.
Please help put parents in charge of their child’s education by forwarding this article to other parents, family, friends and voters.
