It takes a village to raise a child. Weâve all heard the saying, but what do todayâs parents really think? To find out, we conducted a nationwide survey of 2,000 parents of children six and under. According to the survey, 78% of parents agreed that the definition of a villageâ or their community and support systemâ is different today than when they were growing up. Other key findings include:
- 81% believe itâs imperative to have a support systemâa villageâ when it comes to raising their child.
- 86% say they have a different type of support system today than their own parents did.
- Of those with a child enrolled in school or childcare (74%), 89% say it plays a big role in their village. These parents rely on their childâs school or childcare provider an average of 12 times per month for support.

If you're a parent, you've likely heard the saying, "it takes a village to raise a child." While this concept is still true today, today's parents are reinventing what it means to rely on their âvillageâ when it comes to raising a child. According to a recent survey conducted by Talker Research and The Goddard School, 78% of parents with children aged 0-6 agree that the definition of a villageâ or their community and support systemâ is different today than when they were growing up.
