    Gentle parenting is rough for moms and dads

    Gentle parenting indulges a child’s biggest emotions – and it’s wearing parents out. Monica Corcoran Harel is a journalist and screenwriter who covers culture and relationships. She joins host Krys Boyd to discuss her own path of gentle parenting — what she got right and what she says she realizes she did wrong — and why she feels it’s difficult to set boundaries for this method of parenting, which discourages old-fashioned authoritarian rule. Her article in The Cut is “‘Because I Said So … Please?’ My greatest fear is pushing my daughter away. Maybe I went too far to keep her close.”  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
