An introduction to the philosophy of nonviolent parenting

OUR VISION:
To change the worrld, one family at a time, through the acceptance and practice of the principles of nonviolent child raising

OUR MISSION:
To teach effective nonviolent child raising practices based on empathy and compassion, in order to deepen adult-child relationships and move toward a culture of peace and understanding

OUR PHILOSOPHY:
A nonviolent relationship with a child is one that is built on respect and kindness towards the feelings and needs of the child. CNVEP does not use the word "nonviolent" in reaction to violence, but as a concept in itself that honors the connection with a child - that respects the core dignity of the child as a full and complete human being. Nonviolence honors and respects the value, dignity, and life force of the child.

I want it my way!

Our will vs. our 2 year old's will. How do we set limits without disconnecting from our child? For example, he no longer cares for clothes. We have tried everything to get him dressed (empathizing with his wants, teaching him to dress himself, showing him it's cold outside, watching Sesame St., making it a game, him chosing the outfit, drinking milk, waiting until we arrive at our destination). It all ends with one of us (parents) forcing clothes onto him while he cries! This is one of many examples of his need for autonomy not always being safe or wise (in the case of going outside naked in the cold), yet forcing him to dress doesn't feel right either, how can we stay connected and keep him warm?

How to integrate others into the CNVEP's philosophy

Anybody have suggestions on how to integrate other family members (grandparents, etc.) use of reward & punishment into Center philosophy? i.e. What to say to a child when they have been confronted with this behavior?
