Parenting is 80% connection

Parenting is 80% connection

Parenting is 80% connection and only 20% guidance, because until children feel connected, they have no reason to follow our guidance.
– Dr Laura Markham.

Parenting works best when focused on connection. Children need to feel close to their parents before they follow guidance. Strong bonds make them more open to learning and growing.
