When people talk about having a parenting style or whatever like I've just never really known how to take part of that conversation because I don't really maybe I just haven't done enough research but it seems like there's so many different parenting styles "" and I just don't feel like I've researched one specific one or like a diehard one specific one and I'm like yes I follow this to a T I am a gentle parents or like I am I don't even know I don't even know what the options are but I do know that there are some things that I will absolutely not do like I do not believe in spanking I do not really believe in time out I believe in more like the calm down corner and talking through it I don't want to send my kids to bed crying like or make them go hide in their room and cry I don't know like so what what parenting style is that like I want my kids to just know that I love them know that their emotions are valid and just be respectful of others and just be kind humans and I don't know if there's like a certain parenting style that I need to follow and make that happen kind of just go with the flow I don't know just random thoughts I guess but do you guys have like a parenting style what is it how did you decide that was your parenting style

I don't want to repeat the same things of, oh, obedience is the only thing, everything else doesn't count. You know what I mean? So for me, like you say, it's important that the emotions are valid and what they feel is important.

that they feel heard and understood and Just like you with the timeouts. I don't think they work because it's just pushing the emotions down Spanking is a no for me.

And honestly, I'm still working on it because I was spanked. And it's like my automatic autopilot response would be spanked, but then I hold myself and it's been hard.

Also yelling or screaming is something else that I'm working on. and knowing how to model regulating my emotions. That's something that I want to teach them.

It's a work in progress, but I personally think it's like whatever works for you and works for your child or children. I'm trying to work through it with my kids and not traumatise them.

I totally understand I definitely relate to trying to break like those generational things that your parents did and their parents did and you don't want to do with your own kids

It's so hard sometimes when that is like your automatic response because that's all you were taught so it's really hard trying to teach ourselves at the same time as trying to teach our kids so I definitely understand but you're doing a good job

No, I kind of just go with the flow. Like there's certain things I do and do not believe in, and that's what we do with our family.

Do you know why I totally agree I've just been seeing so much talk about it lately and I don't really get the hype or the pressure to like announce your parenting style or say that you follow certain parenting style I think that's kind of I don't know

I just feel like it's kind of personal between you your kid your spouse your family like what works for you guys and for what it's worth we have six kids in our blended family and there is no one parenting style that we could adopt to work for all

Like all kids are so so different and you need to be able to adjust how you're treating them, how you're reacting to them accordingly and not be confined by this parenting style and the way you have to do it.
