Tia, a best-selling author and founder of Tia Slytum Parenting Solutions, shares her insights on creating a positive parenting experience using her 'Parenting with Purpose' method.
With over 20 years of experience and a master's degree in early childhood education, Tia has guided thousands of families worldwide. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding your parenting style, whether it's the overpowering tiger, the wet doormat, or the mutual respect parent. Tia explains how recognising these styles can help parents break cycles of punishment and instead foster an environment of mutual respect and understanding.
She emphasises that parenting is a learned skill and that with the right guidance and accountability, parents can transform their approach to raise confident and respectful children. Tia also discusses the common misconception that parenting is intuitive and provides practical advice on shifting from quick-fix solutions to building a strong foundation of skills and habits. By understanding the root causes of children's behaviours, parents can address their needs more effectively, creating a nurturing environment where children feel seen and heard.
