Ask.com’s VP Nicholas Graham Presents Top Back-to-School Concerns for Parents

Ask.com has shared an important video with information about Back-to-School concerns for parents and how Ask.com can help parents find answers to these concerns. They have also passed along a wonderful list of Back to School Top Searches to help parents find answers to all sorts of Back-to-School concerns.

As children across America head back to school, popular search engine Ask.com has reported a surge in questions about how parents can help make the return to the classroom as smooth as possible.

Some of the questions are age-old ponderings that moms and dads have been trying to figure out for years – How to deal with bullies, How to pack a healthy lunch and Why won’t the dog stop eating my child’s homework!? However, as technology continues to advance at a blistering pace new questions arise that many parents don’t understand, let alone know how to deal with. From ‘sexting’ to cyber bullying to swine flu, millions of American parents are turning to the Internet for advice.

Research shows that consumers enter searches on Ask.com in the form of a question three times more than on any other major search engine, so based on users’ search trends, Ask.com has compiled the top questions parents want answered during this hectic time of the year .

Admittedly, there are no ‘right’ answers to many of these questions. Most of them depend on parenting style, family values and a host of other factors. However, it never hurts to get a second opinion when it comes to the safety of our children. Parents can go to Ask.com and simply type in their questions to receive the quality answers they’re looking for by clicking on the “Lots of Answers” link on the homepage. Within the Ask Q&A channel they will find more than 300 million Q&A pairings with the best answers from all across the Web.

So, here’s a quick quiz – when should you give your child a cell phone?
