Gentle Parenting Misconceptions So many people think gentle parenting means being “too soft” or “letting kids do whatever they want.” But that’s far from the truth! Here’s what *gentle parenting is NOT*: ❌ Not permissive — kids don’t get free rein without limits. ❌ Not neglectful — boundaries and guidance are always there. ❌ Not about avoiding consequences — we teach through natural, logical ones, not punishment or fear. ❌ Not about being the “perfect parent” — mistakes happen, what matters is repair and connection. ❌ Not raising “spoiled kids” — it’s about raising respectful, empathetic, emotionally strong humans. ✨ Gentle parenting = firm *and* kind. It’s leading with empathy, respect, and consistency — not control or fear. 💬 Have you ever been told gentle parenting is “too soft”?
