Many worry about how best to raise their children. Some seek advice from professional medical doctors and nurses, others turn to their neighbors for help. And yet another group buy services catering to parenting for paying a fee. New magazines on parenting have gained popularity as more and more young parents seek professional advice and information on goods and services they require for parenting. Some magazines cater to fathers too.

They are also active consumers of recreational services and leisure programs that involve parents and children as a family.
