Parenting Through Judgement from Other P...

MICHELLE KENNEY, M. ED
About this episode

No matter what method of parenting we choose to follow, there will be judgment from someone, somewhere.  It is hard enough to parent as is, but that judgment can leave us feeling very alone and full of self doubt.  We're talking about all the ways we manage to leave the judgment aside and move forward using peaceful techniques despite the critics.  Please rate, review, subscribe, join us on our Facebook community group and support us on Patreon for extras!
