Guys,

I am considering signing up for the premium section, but like all dads, we have a budget. I am guessing that the knowledge to be gained would be more than offset in cost and headache savings.

Can anyone give me a run down of what topics are covered in the premium section. It would be REALLY helpful if there was some sort of an index to what kind of information is included and/or has been covered there.

Also, once you sign up, is it a one time fee?

Thanks!
