[quote=Anonymous]People have pointed out that They have seen kids whose parents tried a gentle-parenting approach and who have no self-control, no boundaries, think they’re the center of the universe, etc. Well I have seen parents who seemed delighted to tell their little kids that they needed to stop crying, who sent their kids to their rooms, who rolled their eyes at the conversations I had with my kids about feelings, etc. And now those little kids are teenagers who hate their parents and don’t want to talk to them. Whereas my daughter tells me she is so glad I’m her mom, because I treat her like a human being who she can talk to because she knows I care about her. So please stop with the dramatic anecdotes. They don’t mean a lot, especially when there is research out there. [/quote]
