[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I once saw a kid hit their mother in the face and the mom said “oh, did that hurt your hand love?” If THAT is gentle parenting then gentle parenting is BS. [/quote] No it's not. But also, you have NO IDEA what is actually happening here. The kid may have special needs, and the mother has already learned that screaming "DO NOT HIT ME BILLY!" is only going to escalate things. Parents are really just overwhelmed with information. It's easy to mock someone when you aren't doing the job they are trying to do. Giving a smile and a "this age can be tough" can go a really long way. [/quote]
