Child-Led parenting. Attached Parenting. Love and Logic Parenting. I'm wondering why there are SOOO many styles of parenting? And where's the group/board/forum for just 'Common Sense' parenting? I'll admit it...I do ask other parents for their advice. I ask my mom. I research on the internet, but it comes down to what I am comfortable with. I do not spank my child, I do time-outs...I believe in baby wearing (wish I could have found a comfy sling when my son was younger- would have worn him more). I believe in self-weaning (to a point), but I do not think of myself as an AP parent or a full Child-Led parent. And I just found the term Love & Logic, but not sure I fully agree there either.
I think I'm a Common Sense parent. I watch and look and listen and figure out what works best with my son.
Anyhow, I just think it weird that there are so many different styles.
