Mothers Matter

Attachment parenting is largely about meeting the needs of the child for love, security and closeness in the early days and beyond.  It has become possibly the mainstream parenting approach, or aspiration.  In this podcast Michelle McHale, Founder and Director of Attachment Parenting UK, outlines what it does and doesn't mean to adopt an attachment parenting style.  Positive discipline is an integral part of attachment parenting which led us to a discussion of what to do if your toddler is having a tantrum in a public place (and everyone is watching).  Thanks to my producer, James Ede of Be Heard productions.
