Maybe the Continuum Concept (I think by Jean Leidloff?) - that's based on a tribe called the Yequana (sp?). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-that-parenting-philosophy#post-2249285 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 20:52:05 +0000 Orchid 2249285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: @Adira: @youboots: thanks! I am familiar with those parenting approaches and indeed there are commonalities. My friend insists there is a book about a tribe that it's based on though. I may have to ask. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-that-parenting-philosophy#post-2248922 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 12:35:39 +0000 youboots 2248922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You are describing some concepts of free range parenting and slow parenting, although I've never come across information about those hygiene habits in those schools of parenting. The homeschooling concept is called unschooling- I think it has a wiki page. I got a couple books on slow parenting on Amazon and really enjoyed them- but they are more current and not based on a tribe. The non diapering is elimination communication. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-that-parenting-philosophy#post-2248881 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 12:00:01 +0000 Adira 2248881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it the RIE method?</p> <p><a href="https://www.rie.org/educaring/ries-basic-principles/" rel="nofollow">https://www.rie.org/educaring/ries-basic-principles/</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.janetlansbury.com/2013/12/rie-parenting-basics-9-ways-to-put-respect-into-action/" rel="nofollow">http://www.janetlansbury.com/2013/12/rie-parenting-basics-9-ways-to-put-respect-into-action/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-that-parenting-philosophy#post-2248878 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 11:58:55 +0000 Mamaof2 2248878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: same here </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-that-parenting-philosophy#post-2248875 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 11:58:10 +0000 Mamaof2 2248875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Orchid: maybe Consensual Living?</p> <p><a href="http://naturalparentsnetwork.com/parenting-philosophies/#consensual" rel="nofollow">http://naturalparentsnetwork.com/parenting-philosophies/#consensual</a></p> <p><a href="http://mommybabble.contentquake.com/2007/06/18/consensual-living/" rel="nofollow">http://mommybabble.contentquake.com/2007/06/18/consensual-living/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-that-parenting-philosophy#post-2248866 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 11:53:40 +0000 mrbee 2248866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretty sure that if my kids had a chance to never brush their teeth, they just never would! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-that-parenting-philosophy#post-2248865 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 11:52:04 +0000 Orchid 2248865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Truth Bombs: I don't think they will.

Apparently there's a book about the parenting style and I'd love to look into it for myself but would rather not ask her to ask her friends. I get the impression the book might be old. It sounds kinda like "Bringing up Bebe" in the sense that it's based around the author's observations of a community (maybe a tribe somewhere??).</p> <p>Anyway, it emphasizes learning through observation versus instruction. They don't instruct their kids at all, but would move them out of a situation if necessary. Kids are not made to brush their teeth, etc. I think another tenet is that the parents don't play with the kids so that they learn to entertain themselves and recognize the different positions of adults and kids. Oh and their kids never wear diapers! Somehow they know when to put the babies to pee and poop!</p> <p>Anyone familiar with what book this might be from??? </p>
