[quote=Anonymous]Gentle parenting does not at all say anything about being child led on milestones. It’s just about how you hold firm boundaries. Each of your posts talks about how you let your child set boundaries, not you. That’s fine, but that is not gentle parenting. What if your daughter felt she wasn’t ready for vaccinations? The examples just go on and on. If anything, gentle parenting says that kids feel safer when they can tell that adults are in control of structure and boundaries. The gentle part is in how you respond to their distress at bumping up against those boundaries. Letting kids decide their own major life decisions is scary, according to gentle parenting. I think your post was, as you said, just hoping to find other parents who think pacifiers and not potty training past 3 are fine, and it seems like they are not to most of us, but I’m sure others will come along to affirm your choices.[/quote]
