In this episode, parenting author Katie Trudeau dives into one of the myths surrounding gentle parenting and Attachment Parenting.  Even though Attachment Parenting is popular, there are still a lot of myths that need debunking. One of the most prevalent myths is that you'll end up with an out-of-control child. 
In this episode, we'll cover:
1. Why this myth came to be
2. The notion that gentle parenting does not mean lax parenting 
3. What is harsh punishment
4. Alternatives to spanking/timeouts that really do work 

• Time in
• Talking 
• Redirection
• Hug it out
