How to Deal When Someone Criticizes Your Parenting (& Navigating Holiday Gatherings With People Who Aren’t Into Respectful / Gentle Parenting)
What do you do when you’ve made the decision to parent differently … but your family and friends aren’t exactly on board? How do you deal when your own parents criticize your parenting? How do you navigate gatherings with relatives who don’t get gentle / respectful / conscious parenting? These questions come up all the time … but especially during the holidays when we’re gathering with friends and family.
In this week’s episode, I dive into how to handle it when you’re spending time with others who don’t parent like you do. I give you scripts for challenging moments, help you shift your mindset around criticism, and empower you with strategies to set everyone – you, your child, and your relatives – up for success at this year’s holiday gatherings.
Here’s the thing: Most of us were raised in a way that literally wired our brains to care what others think. But the truth is that you don’t have to justify or convince anyone to accept your parenting choices. The more convicted YOU feel about how you’re choosing to parent, the more you can stand in your power knowing that you’re doing what’s best for your child … no matter what anyone else thinks. You’ve got this.
