Tobin’s approach is centred on gentle and respectful parenting, which resonated with me. She encourages parents to foster independence in their toddlers while still setting clear boundaries. This balanced approach has helped me find a middle ground between being too lenient and overly strict. The result? A happier, more cooperative child – and a much more peaceful home environment!
