The work of Alfie Kohn has been one of the biggest influences on how I parent and why I have dedicated my career to being a Peaceful Parenting Coach. We discuss why people have always thought parents are too permissive, the nuance involved in “working with” our kids, and why we need to raise reflective rebels who question what they are told. We talk about: 7:00 Why people think we are “too soft” and permissive with kids 12:00 How black and white thinking gets in the way of peaceful parenting 15:37 “Working with” parenting vs. intensive or helicopter parenting 22:00 Why some kids need more parental support 24:00 Why we need to be realistic and raise “reflective rebels” &amp;nbsp; Download the episode transcript HERE&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Resources mentioned in this episode: The Myth of the Spoiled Child&amp;nbsp; Unconditional Parenting&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Connect with Sarah Rosensweet:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahrosensweet/&amp;nbsp; Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/peacefulparentingfreegroup YouTube: Peaceful Parenting with Sarah Rosensweet @peacefulparentingwithsarah4194 Website: https://reimaginepeacefulparenting.com&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Join us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/peacefulparenting&amp;nbsp; Newsletter: https://reimaginepeacefulparenting.com/newsletter&amp;nbsp; Book a short consult or coaching session call: https://book-with-sarah-rosensweet.as.me/schedule.php&amp;nbsp; The Peaceful Parenting Podcast https://www.sarahrosensweet.com <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/36361435/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/item/36361435
