10 Core Principles of Peaceful Parenting
- Non-Violence: Commit to guiding your child without physical or emotional harm — no yelling, no threats, no punishment.
- Connection: Prioritize building genuine emotional bonds that nurture safety and trust.
- Respect: Treat your child as a full person, honoring their feelings, ideas, and autonomy.
- Autonomy: Support your child’s right to make choices that feel right to them while keeping them safe.
- Empathy: Meet your child’s feelings with understanding, even when you don’t agree.
- Collaboration: Work together on decisions and problem-solving — no battles of will.
- Modeling: Show your child how to behave by how you behave — especially when you make mistakes.
- Inner Work: Pay attention to your own triggers and emotions to respond calmly and thoughtfully.
- Trust: Believe in your child’s inherent goodness and capacity to grow with support.
- Repair: When you stumble (and you will), come back, take responsibility, and reconnect.
