I first starting following her blog when she had the "make your home a haven" challenge. I enjoyed that and feel I've gotten some helpful marriage advice but never felt comfortable taking her parenting advice as she seem like she must spank etc. However I wonder if she is starting to make a journey towards gentle parenting. I think it was on the gentle parenting challenge but she talked about if you are having any issues or are angry with something your spouse did make sure you deal with it so you don't take it out on your kids....I realized from that thought that I've been letting issues with my parents go(by not knowing how to deal with them. They we're very punitive and abusive) and i'm prob taking it out on my hubby. I"m a new member here and this is my first post, even though I've been reading for quite awhile. I'm so happy that I've found this site
