Are social media’s parenting trends helping—or hurting—new moms?
Over the last few years, parenting trends like ‘Gentle Parenting’ have exploded on social media.
While some aspects—like respecting your child and guiding them with empathy—are rooted in good intentions, the reality is that many influencers distort these concepts, leaving parents confused, overwhelmed, and even paralyzed by indecision.
Many moms today are questioning:
🌀 “Should I never say no?”
🌀 “If my toddler melts down, am I supposed to just sit with them forever?”
🌀 “If I set a boundary, will that harm our connection?”
🚨 The truth is: Parenting isn’t a program. It’s a relationship. 🚨
And that’s why we need to keep it simple.
In this episode of Talking Toddlers, we cut through the noise of Gentle Parenting and get back to what really matters: understanding child development.
We break down the toddler years (12 months to 3 years) and why milestones are more than just checkboxes—they’re the foundation for setting healthy boundaries, guiding behavior, and building emotional resilience.
No gimmicks, no rigid programs—just real-life, research-backed wisdom to help you trust your instincts and lead with confidence.
