I am so touched by what you wrote, you are an amazing mom for knowing this early on that you want it to be different, we only stumbled upon this lifestyle over the last 2 years and my kids were already 5 and under by then so you are a few years ahead of me, LUCKY you! i have days of guilt for the time when i did punitive parent, but my kids know I am human and knew no other way and when I knew better, I did better! HUGS hope your day goes beautifully today. Love those babies.Farmer Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01844275712003531089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-328581480660567211.post-86070237394387650422008-04-29T07:56:00.000-07:002008-04-29T07:56:00.000-07:00Hello, you don't know me but I have followed your ...Hello, you don't know me but I have followed your story on babycenter LDS board and on your blog. I am a 24 year old LDS mom of 2 living in Utah, and I stay at home with my children. I came to the realization yesterday that I am teaching my children nothing by using methods of parenting that were used on me and that absolute demeaning anger and was used by my parents I am now using on my children. I know that I felt prompted to "stalk" your blog this morning and found this post. I watched all of the videos that you linked and have tears in my eyes. I just wanted to thank you for taking a stand against what everyone else is doing with their kids and taking a loving approach to parenting and really living with your kids instead of being rulers over them. I have been the ruler over my 3 and 1 year old for too long now and it is time to make a change. Your post touched my heart and I plan on making the change to peaceful parenting TODAY!!! I want my kids to love me and then respect me instead of the other way around. Thank you again and I hope that you know you have given me hope to be a better mother with your methods and have prevented me from spending another day in rock bottom with my children.<BR/><BR/>Katy MorganAndy and Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04876782770058011749noreply@blogger.com
