Hey there,

When I first started positive parenting, my husband just wasn’t on board. In fact, he was really worried that I was going to make our daughter weak!

For instance, when she cried, instead of scolding her, "I told you not to...," like I used to, I was shifting to saying, "I know you're frustrated, but I love you, and we’ll figure this out."

My husband would seethe in the background, convinced this approach would make her soft or defiant.

Twelve years later, while he won’t admit it, he has slowly adopted this style of parenting too—not because I asked him to, but because it works. And our daughter? She’s as tough as ever.

This is exactly what Amy’s article is about—being a gentle parent while raising tough kids. She covers a lot of details including, how to prepare them for the real world, how to build character, teach responsibility and more! Check it out:
