It is tough being a kid in this day and age. It is tough being a parent in this day and age. It is tough raising a kid in today's society. Everywhere you turn you are either doing the right thing or the wrong thing, everyone has an opinion about what you should do, and no one is willing t... continue reading...

It's rather unique way of conducting an online tour is one that hopefully will become more commonpl... continue reading...

There was a saying when I was younger that said you can think globaly, but act locally. The Internet has given many the ability to do that, but in addition, to spread their message globally with little or no trouble. In the past Family First Site has featured sites that are global in nature, look... continue reading...

Poetry, when I was growing up, was a bother. It was tough enough learning to read, but having to read something that rhymed? What a pain. But as I grew older, I learned to appreciate that sort of literature, mostly thanks to a guy named Shakespeare. Today's Family First Site is for kids that haven... continue reading...

Are you looking for a good movie to see, one that the whole family can watch? One that will entertain you with good comedy, one with a rating that won't force you to show an ID to get in? If so, then the Mayor of WorldVillage has a great one for you to see. Not only it is a great film, but it h... continue reading...

Before Ricky Martin, before Elvis, before even Perry Como, there was an entertainer who captured the hearts of his audience like no ever has since. He was considered by his contemporaries (and many post-contemporaries) to be the greatest entertainer of all time. Today thi... continue reading...

Now, before you think the family-oriented Family First site has gone totally off the wall and gone goth on everyone, please read on. Today's site is one that I found in our local Portland Oregonian newspaper on Wednesday of this last week. They gave it such a good review that I thought i... continue reading...
