A very belated Happy New Year everyone! Things have been slow for me on Nostr because life has been way too busy – but I just wanted to come on to share another parenting book I’ve been reading, Discipline Without Damage by Dr. Vanessa Lapointe. I know the title sounds a bit ick but it’s actually the best book I’ve read so far about not so much “disciplining”, but connecting with your kids, which is way deeper than punishment-reward cycles and even Dr Becky who, as much as she was a great intro to gentle/connection parenting, now strikes me as a bit too scripted. Here’s a little excerpt I really like about finding your way when you’re basically at your wit’s end: “If you ever blank out about how to respond to your child, remember this: hold relationship as your bottom line.”
