A big dose being towards parenting each child uniquely based on their age, personality and of course how they are on the day.<br /><br />Sounds like you are doing great, and ready for when bubs is older :)Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14898998929180875867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034592635692139313.post-17793558343686214092010-10-08T18:36:49.717+11:002010-10-08T18:36:49.717+11:00Thanks for posting this.

Sometimes I wonder if it's the parenting strategy that makes it work, or if I'm just lucky and got a compliant child anyway. Or maybe a bit of both? It'll be interesting to see how I go with the second one, who is obviously of a different temperament! So often I question myself and wonder if I'm doing the right thing, so it's nice to have my parenting style affirmed by someone who's been there, done that, several times over with kids who must have different personalities, and it still works. :)Nathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13919291485459544921noreply@blogger.com
