I am not a crunchy type, but never considered formula, happily coslept for about 6 months with each kid, ride public transit, and so on. If anything, my parenting only changes a bit in public in that I tend to be stricter about what is okay or not than some other parents around us and I insist on following through, so I find I sometimes pull her aside to have those talks instead.

With that being said- I do overly award when he's been good while we're out. A whole day in the city wo a meltdown? He gets a balloon from the dollar store.
