Any other parents choosing to follow the attchemnt parenting route?
No spanking…baby wearing…orgainc natural foods…no tv or very limited…homeschooling…not leaving your baby/child at daycare or strangers…extended breastfeeding(2 years)
My question is do you ever get sick of other parents and family member questioning teh creadibilty of attachemnt paretning to the point that is way past annoying?
I mean in the sense that it is sad that so many other parents buy into the “cry it out” and into formula rather than breastfeeding for the reason that breasfeeding is far to much work….that attached children “spoil” them….
The only way a child gets “spoiled” is if they are not loved enough, if you dont spend enough time with them and if you take away their natural abilites in excahnge for the modern day babysitter…tv…
anyone else out there had enough?
i guess what i was asking wasnt being heard but thats ok its yahoo answers what do you expect?
of course raise your child the way you want thats not the point of this question…
is there anyother paretns that hear alot from others about how pampering you child is bad for them?
i think its very nessissary to give your parenting style a name hence attachment parenting

Why in the world parents don’t realize that their kids be it a girl or boy needs lots of care and importance and sharing…feeding and buying things is what all parents do and have to…but why don’t parents sit up and talk and show them what is life? and what is good and bad? because of their ignorance in this part we find tons of guys and gurls disturbed in life and perhaps unaware of what to do in life……and suffer….such parents should never birth to a child at all….they simply give birth to a child…..and always scold it for each and everything and even fight among themselves in front of that child….little they realize how bad it will affect the mentality of a kid??and moreover a kid brought up this situation is sure to be upset and depressed …..and get into troubles experimenting his own way of life…..Each and every girls or guys life depends of how their parents were and all……a law need to be setup to punish poor parenting…..cozzz life starts from home…..

shared parenting?

jkcdea6 asked:

My son is 11yrs. old. We have been living w/a shared parenting plan for about 9yrs. His father is married and his wife has alot of oppinions about what we the parents are doing or planning to do with our child. My question is “how do we come to an agreement or understanding that she really has no say so in the situation?” At this time and for a long time my son has wanted to live in my home but his father and stepmother (mainly stepmother) are standing in the way. My next question is what do you all think my next step should be? The shared parenting thing has never really worked for us because in our plan extracurricular activites override any visitation with the other parent. So yes of-course he plays a sport every season(basketball,football,softball,.
Just looking for some words of wisdom and encouragement. I was told that when children reach a certain maturity level or the age of 12 they can decide which parent they want to live with, is this true?
