"A mother’s eyes don’t lie." Yet so many mothers turn a blind eye to all that you expose in this well written post, and push their children through the machine...those that make it out of the womb anyway. The solution? Home birth and home schooling. Those two subjects would each require their own separate articles on the benefits. Complete control from gestation to graduation.
So true. Mothers are made to suppress their instincts from the start and figuring out why always lead back to industry profits. We need the courage to re-awaken our instincts and to stand with them against the giants that care about profits over people.
I was born at home and was also homeschooled and I also birthed two of my four at home (the other two in a home-like birthing center) and homeschooled them.
God gave you your instincts for a reason. Please heed them! You are anointed and appointed to be your child’s mother. If something seems off, check it and have the courage to follow your instincts, until you know for certain. That “gut feeling” means something.
If everyone is telling you you need to let your baby “cry it out“, and “self soothe”, and everything in you tells you your baby needs the comfort of your closeness, follow your instinct.
I have just learned of the latest trend of this “cry it out” practice, called “extinction“. The very name gives me a bad feeling.
If you desire to mother your baby in this comforting way, but no-one is supporting you, private message me. I will support you. ♥️
I know it’s hard.
I know you’re tired.
This time will pass, and the lost sleep will be a distant memory, but those moments comforting your child, and being there for them will impact them into their adulthood, and will warm your heart for years to come.
Hold your baby.
Comfort your baby.
Crying is the only form of communication your child has. Learn their different cries. You will know when they need you, and when they need to work it out. God Himself said “When you call, I will answer you and show you great and wondrous things...” let your baby learn that someone will answer when they call!
This is not “spoiling“ an infant. It is growing a secure, healthy person.
This is what you were made for, mama!
I am so grateful that when my first was a baby, and I was questioning myself and everything, that someone spoke the courage into me to follow my instincts, when there was a lot of pressure around me to violate them.
I know this is controversial. I don’t mind discussion, or disagreement, but if there is no room in your mind for this method of parenting, please keep on scrolling.”

I’m a big fan of both options!
This is a fascinating and insightful interview that Jeremy of Jerm Warfare did with Gavin de Becker, the author of The Gift Of Fear. https://jermwarfare.com/conversations/gavin-de-becker
