In reply to Tiffany Hathorn. Well said! I think that each child was allotted the set of parents that is best for him/her - not only in personality, but also in parenting style and theory.

In reply to Maggie. I agree about abuse. One of the issues I was facing, though was parents who were so closed in their parenting styles, that they accused other parents (with different opinions) of being abusive. Sad, isn't it?

I don’t usually criticize others parenting styles. It’s really none of my business unless I see abuse taking place.

I hate the way people view parenting as a thing that can be right or wrong. I mean, sure, we all make mistakes, but I truly believe that there are countless ways to parent your child and neither one is inherently superior or inferior to others. Everyone has their own style and it is not my place to judge them.

I’m one to step away from the controversy. I think everyone spends to much time fighting and criticizing how others parent and its not right.

I try not to argue with others. Everyone has a different style of parenting and that is ok.

Definitely agree about stepping away when things get dirty. It’s important to respect others’ decisions and style when it comes to parenting.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a person (parent, or not) with a middle view point. People tend to be heated in their beliefs and arguments.

Great tips. Thankfully, I ‘ve never had the experience of getting into a heated debate, discussion or argument about parenting. When it comes to children, it’s a very touchy subject because everyone has a different view. I don’t like seeing people being overly judgmental when they come in contact with a parenting style they don’t agree with or understand.
