Gentle parenting ≠ permissive parenting
I keep seeing people put gentle parenting down because they’re mistaking it for permissive parenting. Also, parents who practice permissive parenting like to call it gentle parenting when that’s not the case at all. We practice gentle parenting with my kids, they get told no, they have boundari

Rent is Due!
Our routine: 💛 Every week, we do a short 20-minute Money Date with the kids. Here’s how it goes: 1️⃣ They get their allowance 2️⃣ We help them make a plan — some to spend, some to save, some to give, and some to invest 3️⃣ They check for bills — like their $1 rent or saving for a birthday gif

Parenting isn’t easy…
Every moment of parenting is an opportunity to reflect Jesus to our children. The words we speak, the patience we extend, and the way we respond to frustration all shape their hearts and understanding of God’s love. When we choose to pause, pray, and model Christ’s grace, we are not just teachin

Gentle Parenting: What It Is & What It’s Not
Gentle parenting is often misunderstood. Some think it means never saying “no” and letting kids run the show—but that couldn’t be further from the truth. What gentle parenting is: ✔️ Setting clear boundaries with respect ✔️ Responding with empathy instead of solely reacting with punishment ✔️

Parenting is hard…
It’s truly bittersweet. I was really challenged by son tonight. My son whom is 12 y/o and is almost my height. (I’m 5’6 1/2). Not challenged physically but mentally. He’s at the age where he’s smelling himself, being easily influenced and feeling rebellious. We are past the gentle parenting stage.

Gentle parenting is NOT what you’re doing!
There is nothing worse the seeing parents record, disciplining and handling their kids. You will NEVER, have never seen a video of me doing it and never will. When I am parenting I am in the moment, I am not thinking about a camera!📸 #parentyourself #lemon8creator #homeschooling

Discipline isn’t just about correcting behavior—it’s an opportunity to disciple their hearts. When we stay calm, we reflect the patience and love of Christ to our littles. Save this post for the next hard moment—you’re not alone, and Jesus is with you! Which one do you want to try first?
