parenting styles.
this is just a basic question....its more of a curiosity then a cry out for help.
special needs kids that are through adoption, tend to have some specific issues...weather it be attachment/ learning/ hyper/ anxiety/ RAD/ PTSD/ ADHD/FAS ....i hope some agree.
i have read alot of books and different parenting techniques.
but heres my question....just wondering what other people do.
when parenting a child at the beginning....do you choose your battles (due to children need control) or do you control everything (due to children needing control)
and slowly let them start to make choices.
i'm just curious....please, i dont want text book answers, or some authors view.....ive read them all....
i really want to know what you actually do in your own family.
not with what you think you are suppose to do, but what you actually do.
for those who had birth children ...do you find yourself more stricter with your adopted children due to the issues that they come with, or do you find yourself more easy due to their past traumas?
we do know regular parenting doesnt work with some of our kids....but does it?
I dont have birth kids, so i dont know.....anyway,...i know its a pretty broad question....
