You may have grown up with parents who used intimidation or fear as a parenting technique.
Or perhaps your parents were too permissive.
So how do you find the balance between the two?
We empower families to find the middle ground between too firm and too kind.
We help parents end painful generational cycles, by building out their parenting toolkit so they can truly be at choice, and they can build out family legacies and memories that they are proud of.
That includes really leaning heavily into how firm and kind can truly co-exist.
Today Wendy and Terry discuss the 4 ways you can practice being firm AND kind in your parenting:
- Understand what firmness is.
- Understand what kindness is.
- Practice the firm and kind 4 step process (keyword practice).
- Aim for practice over perfection.
