I make a conscious effort to practice patience and gentleness in my parenting, but I admit it's not always easy. Unfortunately, my husband subscribes to a more traditional approach to parenting, which means he doesn't tolerate tantrums or bad behavior. This can sometimes make things even more challenging for me as a parent. I really admire you and Gwena (I'm not sure if that's how her name is spelled, sorry 😅) ❤
My parents always get mad at me since I’m usually grumpy in the mornings. They’ll just say “well you should try to be better.” And you know what, that might be true but I can’t just change myself right now. It takes time to change an attitude like that and I’m not like that all day or everyday. I think it’s fine to be a little grumpy in the morning since it’s just a part of my day and sometimes days just gotta be like that, as long as it doesn’t include being super mean to people. But if I am mean to people it’s because they don’t respect my the space I need in the morning and just start throwing tasks or other stuff at me when I can’t handle it while I’m still waking up
Thank you for being an understanding parent. There are so many parents who will sit there and try to punish or retaliate against a small child who is just confused and dealing with emotions they don’t fully grasp or know how to handle. If there were more parents like you, the world would be a nicer place!
I don't have children of my own but I am a fully involved auntie to two girls and one boy. I love them with all my being and have had a big hand in raising them/ teaching them to be a good person. I've used this style of "parenting" with them their entire lives. (Parenting put in " " because I don't want anyone coming for me since I'm technically not a parent)
I have been told I over explain things when I don't need to or that they aren't going to listen, but I swear that what I'm teaching sticks with them 9 out of 10 times and they have a visible respect for me and the way I teach them things. I have to repeat myself 10 or more times at moments but I know it's going to be more effective than yelling at them to listen and scaring them. We have a family riddled with adhd, myself included, so it's challenging at times but in those moments I take a deep breath and try again.
I think one of my favorite things is explaining something knowing they aren't listening, asking if they heard what I said and getting a "yes," then me asking them to repeat what I just said to them, and then getting the "uhhhhhh" and the shy face 😂 I never get mad or yell at that I just ask them to listen to me and go through the entire process until they're able to repeat what I said. At this point they know it's coming so they listen more the first time if they're capable in the moment lol
Seeing your videos and gwennas make me feel like I'm doing something right with them ❤
as a little kid (who had a speech problem so communicating was especially not easy for me because while I usually managed to understand others nobody understood what I was saying) my family at one point early on gave me the nickname "Stitch". They literally ruined that entire franchise for me ever since I was child. Simply because especially my sister always dis unfair things to me and always got away with it, making me angry, mad, disappointed and especially sad. And because nobody ever tried to actually sympathise with me, it always made me madder and madder and made me cry more snd more, and remember that I was a little kid back then, tantrums aren't an unusual thing. And yet they managed to ruin the entire Lilo & Stitch franchise for me even now.
This has me I tears. Every child deserves to be cranky sometimes. I was beaten as a kid and it really did affect me. I feel like I can't have emotions anymore……
I'm trying to 're-parent' my inner-child because the parenting I received was horse shit, toxic horse shit.
Watching your videos has been so helpful. They make me truly see how terribly I was spoken to as a little girl. The emotionally abusive words hurt so much more than any of the physical violence.
I just turned 33 and I've always needed a mom like you. Mine is TFG, too far gone, unfortunately (BPD/Addiction). It makes me so sad.
One time, I went to a park with my parents, and I was so hangry, and just wanted some tacos from the taco stand. Pretty much the moment I got my tacos, I went from spacy and irritated, to happy like normal. I then realized that I get hangry just like my mother, as my brother pointed out how drastic my mood changed. This video just reminded me of that for some reason.
My 8 year old is starting to get that pre-teen hormones and one day she stomped down the hall and I was like yo what’s up? Her simply goes I’m mad and I have no idea why and it making me more mad. Me cool do you wanna go relax in your room with your TV and tablet. Her yep. Ok bye then come out when you feel better. My husband just looked at me and was like what’s going on, and I said hormone spikes are fun. Good luck with those and no we don’t parent that just give her the space to Un angry.
lol my mom never says good morning because she doesn’t know if i’ll “bite” her. maybe if you were nice to me i’d be nice back 🙂 some days i can’t even deal with her…
this is a guess only because of personal experience; perhaps they got upset because they really like those pants and they don’t fit how they used to fit, and that can magnify body insecurities.
You're so dreamy! I wish I had had a mom like you! Instead I'm here working on a book about my childhood with the encouragement of my therapist.
Are you near Vegas, id love my partner to hang out with you! Lol

Your such an amazing and understanding person!
How do I send this to my mom without sending it 💀
I not cranky in the morning sometimes I’m cranky in the morning all the time
Please for the love of God be my mom… You're so understanding and patient…

God that is so true. This is why everyone needs therapy- cause most of us grew up with a parent who would’ve took that so personally. 😮💨

Ok, random, but holy hell, their eyes are gorgeous

Thank you much better than beating or screaming at them. Wish more people with the proper patience were parents like you
As someone who was grounded for so much as not untying my shoes before I took them off, your parenting makes me have hope for humanity
Be my mum pls
