    Regardless of your parenting style, its a good idea to just avoid some of the conflicts with children. Think about toy clutter. I built this Automatic toy cabinet to PREVENT spreading toys all over in the first place. Without the confrontation we can spend our time in better activities.

    What do you think?

    What a great post. I see the impact of parenting first hand as a daycare provider, but this post is a great reminder that 'parent' is a verb and how it's done has a great impact on our kids from infancy through their adult lives.

    Thanks for posting. The Octomom is a sore subject for me. I especially feel for the kids. Hopefully most parents will see all the media coverage and think I never want to do that to my kids. Unfortunately there are also those that see the media coverage she is getting and think I would like to be a "star" like her and have more kids ans live on welfare.
    All I can really hope and pray for is the kids will be raised properly and turn out to be great adults one day.

    I am glad you enjoyed the lens. I have to tell you the the "The Five Love Languages of Children" is one of the best books I have read. I learned so much. After having our second child I thought it would be easy but of course she is totally different and has a different love language than our first child.

    Enjoyed your lens. Thanks for bringing this some attention. Many parents just blindly do things the way their parents did, but there are better ways if we're willing to do some research. I love learning about different parenting ideas & tips and ways of viewing parenting!

    I second your recommendation for "The Five Love Languages of Children". We do need to tell our children we love them, but we also need to show them and in a language that they understand as this book explains. It's one of many great resources.

    Your lens is very helpful. Could there be a silver lining to this whole Octomom debacle? It is a bad individual child-rearing situation but she is a lightning rod for a national discussion about parenting.

    Hi Rick, thanks for stopping by my Preschooler Cartoon Katakune lens :) 5 stars to you for this lens!

    Like it! My babygirl is still too young and not too demanding. I'll come back in couple of years and tell you what kind of parent I'm! I know what kind I wanna be... but, we'll see!
    Give you 5*, and lensroll to my Gentle baby care!
