Listen "Parenting Power"
Episode Synopsis
“Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent than the one derived from fear of punishment.” Mahatma GandhiThis quote beautifully encapsulates the idea I am going to talk about in this episode. Arguably, the most important component in parentingHave you ever asked yourself 'how can my kids follow my instructions without any resistance?' Well I think as parents, this crosses our minds quite often. I hope to share some insights I have gathered about this. There is a parenting concept that I learnt from the book Hold on to Your Kids written by Dr Gabor Mate and Dr. Gordon Neufeld. This is the concept of parenting power. In a nutshell this is the power that enables a parent to connect with their child, nature them, direct them and raise them up in the right way, without coercion or force.
