Parenting is challenging, and everyone has their own style. For Emma, breaking away from traditional methods has been transformative. Emma, a mother of eight-year-old Georgie, has embraced a parenting approach centered on empathy and understanding rather than discipline. She no longer makes Georgie say “thank you” or “sorry” on command, believing this fosters a deeper connection and genuine emotional expression. Now, she’s sharing her story online, inviting other parents to weigh in on her unconventional choices. Emma’s goal is to raise Georgie in an environment where he feels truly heard and understood, helping him grow into his best self.
