   gentle parenting strikes again

      Nah, absent parenting. There’s a lot of shitty parents glued to their phones, which has short-circuited the innate desire to parent.

      Gentle Parenting is full of uncertainties. There are times when you need to skip the gentle crap and be a parent.

      It works on a small scale, where parents are dedicated to the cause, but it falls apart as soon as it hits genpop: someone watches a TikTok summary and thinks they’re an expert.

      This approach is completely reasonable because kids are completely reasonable.
