gentle parenting

Gentle parenting is an approach that emphasizes respect, empathy, and understanding in nurturing a child's development. It focuses on guiding children with kindness, patience, and clear communication, rather than using punishment or harsh discipline. The goal is to build a trusting relationship where children feel safe, loved, and valued, which encourages their emotional growth and self-discipline. This approach recognizes children’s developmental needs and promotes positive behavior through connection and support, fostering independence and resilience in a respectful and nurturing environment.
