Peaceful Parenting is NOT Permissive Parenting | Destini Ann, Jai Institute for Parenting

So…. gentle, peaceful parenting is NOT permissive parenting

Gentle parenting and permissive parenting do share warmth and compassion, but unlike peaceful, gentle parenting, permissive parenting doesn’t have the limits and boundaries that kids need to thrive

Just like any parent, we as peaceful, gentle parents have boundaries and limits, but we make sure that those boundaries and limits are ...

✅ Values-based

✅ Emotionally mature

✅ Honor where our kids are at developmentally

❌ Not from our trauma, conditioning, or acting from our nervous system dysregulation

Your kids don’t have to be scared of you in order for you to be the leader in your home, because our job is to teach and guide, not to demean and punish

How does this resonate with you? We’d love to hear what you think in the comments 👇
