Is there a positive example of parenting?

Positive parenting teaches children to be positive by setting high standards for themselves and expecting them all to follow them. This includes showing love and affection to them, and supporting them when they are struggling.

Positive parenting teaches children to make decisions based on what is best for themselves rather than the easiest or most convenient. This helps children become independent adults and not just follow what others tell them.

Positive parenting means having fun with your children and encouraging them to find the joy in their lives.

Children trust their parents when they see them as caring about them and treating them like people, not objects. They are more likely to be happy and healthier, and less likely get into trouble.


Is gentle parenting good?

It depends what you mean with "good." If you mean how children are treated then yes. If you are asking me whether it's best for them, however, I'd say no. They need discipline and firmness at times. They will never be able learn to behave correctly if they aren't disciplined and firm.

Children need rules and limits. They will not know the difference between acceptable and unacceptable behavior without them. They won't learn how to respect others as well as follow instructions.

If you were to ask me which parenting style would I choose, I'd answer none. All three styles are equally effective. It is important to find the best one for you, your family and yourself.
