Positive parenting is founded on the truth that children are born good and whole with a natural desire to do what is right. Let me show you how to embrace this truth in your home.
What is Positive Parenting?
Positive parenting is vastly different from the beliefs of past generations that children are nuisances, and that they should strictly obey their parents without questioning. These past beliefs did not take into account the needs and desires of the children themselves.
On the other hand, positive parenting is founded on the truth that children are born good and whole with a natural desire to do what is right. Through positive instruction, the parent does everything within their power to:
- give the child lots of reasons to behave well
- support healthy brain growth
- and build strong attachments that are based on love and mutual respect.
If this sounds wonderful but you don’t know how to start, let me be your guide!
Where Do I Start?
My greatest passion is teaching parents like you to become the parents they want to be.
I consider it my greatest calling to teach parents the science-backed skills they need to improve the relationships within their families, and to have more fun.
You can find me daily on Instagram teaching, role-playing real-life examples, and cheering you on!
I also have an ever-growing Simply On Purpose Blog Archive where you can read more in-depth on popular topics and find helpful free resources, everything from After School Questions to Fun Family Traditions.
What Are the Next Steps?
When you are ready to take the next step and invest in your positive parenting journey, Simply On Purpose has 3 possibilities for continued education.
Though each offering is founded on the principles of positive parenting, each one has its own unique content, benefits, and community involvement.
I’ve also found that different options appeal to different people at different stages of their lives.
To help you navigate your options, I’ve created a fun flow chart to help you find the next right step on your positive parenting journey:
