Not Too Strict, Not Too Gentle. Respectful Parenting is Here!

There’s a new parenting style in town. Not too hard, not too soft. It’s just right! It’s called “Respectful Parenting!” It’s designed to make children feel respected, loved, heard, and valued as individuals.
Janet Rotter, child development expert, psychoanalyst and head of The Studio School in New York City, talks with Lynn and Justin about fostering emotional connections with our children, based on the belief that all humans - no matter the age - deserve to be treated with empathy and compassion.
In our Parenting Story of the Day we hear from Sarah Savage who was having trouble with her spirited daughter - until she tried a new approach. It changed everything for the better.
