by phdinparenting on August 28, 2009

About a year ago, a reader asked me if I would be willing to share a list of my favourite parenting books. I said “sure” and that is when I started working on page called My Parenting Library. Last night I finally found the time to finish an initial version of it.

Beyond the Baby B’s: Attachment Through Play

by phdinparenting on April 2, 2009

Nothing was easier, more intuitive for me than the Baby Bs: breastfeeding, babywearing, bedding with baby, and so on.  Attachment parenting an infant was simple.

As parents, we’ve all made mistakes. We’ve all seen other parents make mistakes. In some cases, the mistakes are due to poor information and in other cases just poor judgement. The poor judgement part is, in my mind, just part of learning the art of parenting. It is something you learn through experience and by [...]

New reason why punishment doesn’t work: the law!

by phdinparenting on June 20, 2008

From the research that I’ve done, I’ll well aware that using punishment to discipline children is not very effective and can be damaging. Some of the reasons I’ve learned in the past include:
