    Gentle Parenting Books?

    Hi all

    I was just wondering if anyone can lead me to some good resources outling gentle parenting/discipline methods? I really don't know alot about the philosophies, but want to find out more. I am keen for my boys to learn boundries, right/wrong, etc...but want them to learn these things in a positive manner, and also want to ensure I do my best to stay in control!

    TIA

    Lindy, you can find a list of recommended books HERE - there are books that cover everything from pre-conception (for next time round ) to pg, birth and beyond Anything by Pinky McKay is just fabulous - she has a fantastic approach and her books will give you loads of great parenting tips. You could also join in the Gentle Parenting Discussion threads and if you have a question, we are only too glad to help you out.
