31 Days of Parenting with Gentleness
I am so exited about this 31 Day Series on Parenting with Gentleness!
UPDATE: This series has ended. Please join my email list to keep up with my latest posts on parenting and homemaking, plus receive access to my library of free printables.
This topic has been on my heart because, while I want to be a Godly mother, I have such a long way to go!
My tendency is to err on the side of being too strict, but when I read books or articles about what is typically called “Grace Based Parenting”, I often come away with the impression that all is grace and there is no room for reasonable consequences.
My goal is to find a balanced middle ground – not harsh, law-based parenting, but not permissive, “whatever-goes-because-we-all-mess-up” parenting either.
My desire is to parent with gentleness, whether that means I am extending mercy or whether I find it necessary to mete out appropriate consequences.
Join me for the next 31 days as we discuss what it means to parent with gentleness, why we should do so, and as we explore some practical ideas for becoming more gentle with our children.
