This is what good responsive or gentle parenting results in.

The problem is it takes a lot of patience and work that most people don’t have. And so a lot of people see the work that takes to get this stage and think the kid just isn’t disciplined. And then one day they do this.

As a side note some people “do gentle parenting” by just not parenting at all… and that’s not the same thing.

But what could be gentler than just doing nothing at all?
