Learn how to let go of the need for control and embrace the art of conscious parenting, allowing your child to thrive in a loving and supportive environment.

Excerpt:
“The best way for parents to fulfill their roles is to open themselves up to growth. They need to view themselves in the mirror their children provide for them. If we are truly open instead of being defensive, our children will show us where our blindness lies. We can then address these issues through our own behaviour, our own way of thinking and our own emotional state, so that we ourselves grow.” -Dr. Shefali

Blogpost We Like

I recently came across an amazing collection of Mother’s Day short stories on RD.com that truly touched my heart. These beautifully written stories capture the essence of motherhood and the deep bond between a mother and her child. From tales of sacrifice and unconditional love to moments of joy and inspiration, each story reminds us of the incredible role mothers play in our lives. Whether you’re a mother yourself or simply want to celebrate the mothers in your life, these heartfelt stories are a must-read. They serve as a beautiful reminder of the profound impact a mother’s love can have and will leave you feeling grateful and inspired.

Excerpt:
“Mommy, you are a fairy,” I said. My mother laughed like tinkling bells. “I am serious, Mother. You know everything.” “My child, I try to answer as best as I can. When you grow older, you will not need me,” she said. “No, Mom, I will always need you. Nothing can change that,” I said. Her words echo in my heart as I look at the blue sky: “Dear daughter, nothing remains the same except the vast blue sky.” It has been ten years since I lost my fairy. Mom, you were wrong about one thing: I still need you. —Saman Rahman, Peshawar, Pakistan.

Check out the collection on RD.com and prepare to be moved by these heartwarming stories that celebrate the incredible women we call “mom.”

Parenting Neurodiverse Kids, Spring Ahead, Simplicity of Health (#39)

April 24, 2023 No Comments

At The Monkey Mashup, we provide a supportive community and a wealth of resources for parents looking for tips and guidance on parenting, including neurodiverse or differently wired children. Our goal is to help parents embrace their role and navigate the challenges of raising a child who may have unique needs.

Here is this week’s “Monday Mashup”, a quick list of what we are finding useful. If you enjoy it, please feel free to forward it to friends.

What We Watched

In a recent podcast episode, Dr. Nicole Beurkens and Debbie Reber explore the challenges and rewards of parenting neurodiverse or differently-wired children. The discussion focuses on embracing the child’s strengths and needs rather than trying to fix them, and shifting away from the school-enforced goals and stigma surrounding neurodivergent children. Instead, the conversation offers practical tips and resources for parents to help their children thrive in a world that may not always understand or accommodate their unique needs.

As the founder of TiLT Parenting, a leading resource for parents raising differently wired children, Reber offers valuable insights into the journey of parenting a neurodiverse child, emphasizing the importance of taking a marathon, not a sprint, approach. Through her work and personal experiences, Reber has developed a wealth of knowledge and resources to help parents navigate the challenges of raising neurodivergent children and fostering positive, fulfilling relationships with their children.

12 Men Share Pre-Fatherhood Insights, The Unpopular Parent, Wellness North Counselling Ltd (#38)

April 17, 2023 No Comments

Whether you are a new or expectant parent seeking inspiration on your parenting journey or just looking for resources and support, The Monkey Mashup is a community that offers a safe space for new parents to connect and learn from each other’s experiences. Through various forms of content such as articles, podcasts, and online events, Monkey Mashup focuses on providing a wealth of valuable resources for new parents.

Here is this week’s “Monday Mashup”, a quick list of what we are finding useful. If you enjoy it, please feel free to forward it to friends.

Blogpost We Read

Becoming a parent is an exciting and transformative experience, but it can also be a daunting one. There’s no instruction manual for raising a child, and even the most experienced parents can face unexpected challenges. That’s why it’s important to take the time to reflect on your own strengths and weaknesses before you become a parent.

In a recent blog post from Fatherly, 12 new fathers share their experiences and insights on what they’re glad they knew about themselves before becoming a dad. From learning how to prioritize self-care to embracing vulnerability and letting go of perfectionism, these dads offer valuable perspectives on the joys and challenges of parenthood.

Here’s one of the stories:
“One thing I knew about myself going into parenthood was that I am not a patient person when learning new things. Typically, I like the bare minimum of coaching and teaching, then I like to jump in and learn on the fly. With parenting, obviously, that can be dangerous. But I knew I wasn’t going to listen to endless podcasts or read all the books. So, knowing my shortcomings, I realized that I was able to prepare by doing two things: finding books that worked for me, and asking people for their top three pieces of parental advice. I was able to balance figuring things out on my own and having help with the basics.”
– Brian, 42, California

Slow and Steady Potty Training, Parenting and Punishment, Angel Mayes: Therapeutic Coaching (#37)

April 10, 2023 No Comments

Parenting toddlers can be challenging. With so much advice out there, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. However, with patience, consistency, and understanding, parents can help their children successfully navigate this transition.

Here is this week’s “Monday Mashup”, a quick list of what we are finding useful. If you enjoy it, please feel free to forward it to friends.

Great Tip We Read

Potty training can be a daunting task for parents, filled with stress, power struggles, and messes. While popular conventional practices, such as the three-day boot camp method and bribery with candy and sticker charts, may work for some, they can be overwhelming and even counterproductive for others. Waiting until the child is “ready” may also lead to power struggles, as children at that age are naturally asserting their independence.

However, there is a peaceful alternative: Slow and Steady Potty Training. This method takes more time and a different mindset but can result in minimal stress, zero power struggles, and positive results. It involves using:

Cloth diapers
Put baby on a potty seat during diaper changes
Use the bathroom in front of the kids
And more

This approach may not be for everyone, but for those who want to try a gentler approach to potty training, Slow and Steady may be the way to go. (Read the full blog post here)

This Week’s Article

Parenting and Punishment

Let’s talk about parenting and punishment. Just pause for a moment and really pay attention to what the words parenting and punishment feel like inside your body? Are you instantly transported to a younger, possibly scared or embarrassed version of yourself? Did those feelings then begin to feel like confusion, and like a strike against your young self?
