"write a 1000 word essay in which you identify and explain what kinds of preparation help people become effective parents,"
this is refering to emotional or moral preparations.
Thanks for your help in advance, i'm really stuck.

How about these ideas:
parents talking to their parents/grandparents, getting advice, learning from their mistakes, etc.
Finding a religion...Parents should decide if they want to raise their children within a religion. This would give them a moral foundation.
Going to meetings/groups/classes for parents. Again, learning about how to be a better parent, what to expect, etc.
That's all I can think of now. I hope this helps!

The point of the essay is to get you to research and site sources for what it takes to be an effective parent.
There are loads of sources if you search a few different engines, but here would be a few of the types of prep: reading books, articles and the web for advice, prenatal classes and the resources they provide, community health centers...
If this essay isn't due in the next couple of days, go to your local public health agency and ask for more info on parenting resources. You'll leave with all the local sources and more than enough for a 1000 word essay. Also, the fact that you actually did leg work and acquired the info from the agency will get you extra marks.

Just write about what you feel, if you feel like you want to go to sleep, then write about going to sleep, if you feel like you hungry then write about why you are so hungry, it will soon come in time, your paper with be the best paper in the whole class because when you bake cookies for the whole class people will think your cool and then invite you to a party on Friday, but then you would say sorry i cant because i have work and then you would give your pesentation to the class along with your speach on the importance of computer printers in college so you would get an A+ in the class.

Sexual education and drug awareness. Both good awareness programs that can make people more effective parents emotionally and morally.
