My partner remarked how communicative and touchy A has been this week, how calm and responsive as well. Astonishing for 2 hours special time.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13039427868081296350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428008865824794739.post-83394029082477836962012-10-19T09:34:43.146+01:002012-10-19T09:34:43.146+01:00Love this post, positive parenting is right up my ...Love this post, positive parenting is right up my street! My kids are older now (the two eldest have flown the nest) but both Hubby & I have raised all 4 of them like this. People would often accuse us of being 'too soft' on the kids by keep saying yes and co-sleeping etc, but they all ate their words when they realised that this style of parenting does actually work. <br /><br />Each to their own and I guess it might not work for everyone, but saying yes more often worked very well for us. I've never read Oliver James book but it sounds like it gives some good advice :-)Emma@christmascupboardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07939624431408633740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428008865824794739.post-46393412671819721152012-10-19T09:19:00.913+01:002012-10-19T09:19:00.913+01:00Ahhhh, this is lovely!

We talked about inane stuff before her sibling woke up and climbed between us. Really interesting, she really wanted to be near me and I normally get the feeling she is aloof, cold and dislikes contact. Bless her.
