Respectful Mom

by Kristín Maríella

The parenting approach I practice and write about is inspired by Magda Gerber’s RIE approach and other respectful / mindful parenting resources that have influenced my parenting journey. If you would like to educate yourself further on this approach I always recommend Magda Gerbers books or Janet Lansbury's work as a great place to start.

Quote of the week
