DOES POSITIVE/GENTLE PARENTING REALLY WORK?

I have been asked this question a lot of times by parents.

My simple answer to them is always YES! 

It does and I also tell them that if they don’t think it works they should wait until their precious little ones turn into teenagers. 😊

They will be forced to either be gentle or lose their big kids to society! (if you are raising a teenager you will understand what I’m talking about!)

As a teacher, mother and grandma, I have witnessed many moms, and friends circle with this positive mindset raising loving, kind and respectful children with whom they share close relationships as adults who are now in happy relationships and raising their children. 

So one thing I would like all parents of young children reading this is to always remember, that they are not raising kids, they are raising adults. 

 Positive upbringing results in positive children/adults. That’s not to say that a child/teenager will not stray, but love will always bring them back home.

I can’t stress this enough!  Children learn what they live! ALL DAY LONG!!

So be careful how you treat or speak to people when your kids are around! THEY ARE WATCHING YOU

Dear parents, PLEASE find opportunities each day to help them grow and learn to be the best adults they can be by the way you live! 

Raising your kids with kindness, love and respect will pay off later.  Trust me! 

Always treat your kids with kindness. BECAUSE THEY ARE YOUR BIGGEST BLESSINGS 

And this is one of the reasons that I make KINDNESS a BIG part of our classroom management. 

My kids know that they have to be nice and say kind words to each other when they come to lessons.

REMEMBER WHEN WE KNOW BETTER WE MUST DO BETTER!

Happy parenting. 😊❤️
