Do Nothing Parenting

Do Nothing Parenting

Nurturing is the very nature of every species. Parenting used to be an effortless, spontaneous and instinctual process for human beings. Why is it that today we have the need for million books, thousands of experts, and hundreds of workshops to know how to raise a child?

Why are we not able to understand children? Why are we not using our instincts and have become totally dependent on the experts? Why is it that today we have created a world that is so anti-child?

From effortless parenting how has parenting become an activity that is creating anxiety, stress, and chaos? Children imbibe everything they experience. If they experience stress and anxiety, they imbibe it. So, what is the anxious parent teaching the children to become? What is the external dependence of parents teaching the child whose very nature is to ‘learn’ and create knowledge?

The nature of the child is to be content, to be present, to learn choicelessly.

Anger, fear, guilt, shame, boredom, depression, jealousy, sadness, demanding, attention-seeking, loneliness, throwing tantrums are all outcomes of modern parenting. What conditions create this behavior in children? Are behavioral problems like ADHD, ADD, ODD Conduct disorder, etc creation of modern parenting?

How could indigenous communities raise children effortlessly?

DO NOTHING PARENTING is an invitation to explore and reclaim what we've lost in the process of becoming modern and educated. This is not a regular parenting workshop where you'll receive a set of tips and tricks.

This is an invitation for an inner journey to understand oneself by being with children sensitively so that children are able to retain what life has endowed them with.

Children develop their behaviour in response to the conditions we provide.
“With the explosion in behavioral difficulties (ADHD, OSD, PTSD, OSAD, AHD etc) learning disabilities and mental & physical health problems in children today, one wonders if the predominant culture of the modern world is responsible for this damage.”
Modernity blames the victims rather than addressing the root cause. It is a miracle that lots of children due to life’s sheer endurance manage to escape the destruction that modernity is doing to them.
Unfortunately, even the solutions that are being offered again and again seem to be working against the true nature of children as we are again and again imposing our distorted and market-led understanding of life
The sign of a developed, civilized society can be measured by the conditions it provides to its most vulnerable members without making them aware of their vulnerability and helplessness
