Why Your Past Is The Key To How You Parent Today

Have you ever thought about what drives your parenting decisions? Why you have chosen to co-sleep (or not)? Why you believe children need discipline and how you implement it? Dr Vanessa Lapointe says the way we parent today is based on the past, and not just the way you were parented. Vanessa talks about the influence of historical approaches to parenting as well as how to avoid fear-based approaches to raising your child. Vanessa's latest book is called Parenting Right From the Start. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
