One Seed Has Been Planted!

I was very excited to get this message on my Facebook wall tonight....
"OMG Cassie, been reading a lot of Sandra Dodd stuff over the last couple of days. So much of what she says about respectful parenting, spoiling a child etc really rings true with me. There are things that my partner and I do routinely in terms of discipline with my stepson, because it is the "acceptable" mainstream way of doing things, and I never even thought of the effect it has until reading it - eg taking toys away because he has been "bad". I just wanted to thank you so much for pointing me in this direction -in all my parenting endeavours I will try to take a deep peaceful breath and do things from a place of love and acceptance."
How cool, huh! I shared Sandra's link on my Living Natural group, we have a thread going on unschooling. Maybe she'll find this group next!
