I'm in the midst of trying to figure out the best way to handle my almost-two-year-old's tantrums and other exercises of the will. Upon looking for something else, I stumbled upon this website http://www.gentlemothering.com ... While some of their articles disagree with some of the principles taught by the Ezzo's, I found them to be insightful and informative. I'm going to be spending more time exploring the site, as I found some of the articles helpful. Has anyone ever heard of "gentle mothering" and/or "grace parenting?" It's very interesting, but I've never heard of it before.
Yes! I LOVE GentleMothering.com but the site has been moved to http://www.gentlechristianmothers.com/mb/ . Tim Kimmel has written several books on Grace Based Discipline - look his name up on Amazon. Lots can be said here but sounds like you're already on the right path. Also, check out Crystal's webiste at http://www.aolff.com
ReplyDeleteI higly recommend Tim Kimmel and Clay Clarkson's books. Gentle Christian Mothers is an excellent resource for all things parenting (and some things not!)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feedback - I've already ordered the Grace Based Parenting book and am waiting on a few similar ones. Let me know if you find any other good ones. :)
