I've always been a big believer in following ones instincts, and my instincts have led me here. I think I fall under the 'gentle parenting' label. I'm not 100% sure what it entails, but I'd like to know. And after discussing all things children with my own parents, I'm pretty sure I was raised under this label too. And to be honest I struggle to fault my parents or be traumatized by what they did so far DH and I have yet to disagree about something parenting related, so I'm feeling well supported... And I've just lost my train of thought LOL

Anyway, what are the key ideas (ethos? points?) of gentle parenting?

Can anyone recommend a book or 2?
