    I, of course, love this post and have always admired you for your non-judgmental attitude towards mine (and others’) parenting…you are truly an inspiration and I appreciate your support!

    First, I am so grateful to meet two new and wonderful people (you and Shana).

    Second, I am so very happy you will be participating. Truly, a community of parents supporting parents is what I ultimately imagine; even if it’s only in my tiny corner of the world.

    Third, I look forward to reading your future posts on this and other topics!

    Amber, your view on this topic is so refreshing, I find all to often that people are too harsh with each other. I am happy to have found this and looking forward to reading others posts that stem from your Non-Judgmental Parenting.

    Great thoughts! It’s so wonderful to hear a view like this (which I completely agree with) rather than “you’re not doing things like me so it’s wrong” which I have seen unfortunately all too often around the blogosphere. The Non-Judgmental Parenting notion sounds wonderfully supporting!

    I have always said the same thing. What works for me, may not work for you. We all have to do what is best for our family! Thanks for joining in the Hop!

    Thank you for this terrific post! I will sometimes get a response that isn’t so much “you’re not doing things like me so it’s wrong” but more “you’re not doing things like me so you must be saying that what I’m doing is wrong”. My choosing my own path as a mom is in no way a criticism of anyone else’s parenting choices! I’m just doing what I feel is the best thing for these little individuals in my care – which is different than what might be right for the little people in someone else’s care. Our kids are all lovely, unique individuals, so we each develop our own parenting style to fit their needs.
