Good Inside Parenting is Not Gentle Parenting

NOTE

The Sturdiness of Good Inside Parenting

Good inside parenting, rather than being gentle, emphasizes the importance of being sturdy in moments that require intense sturdiness. The focus is on being intensely grounded and having a strong presence in challenging situations, maintaining a firm but empathetic approach. Sturdiness involves being connected to oneself and others simultaneously, acknowledging others' feelings while maintaining boundaries. Sturdy parenting is not about being harsh or using punitive measures but about effectively managing challenging situations with empathy and intention. It does not rely on consequences or punishments, emphasizing that they do not contribute to teaching valuable lessons.
