  • She’s a Zionist

    She recorded the most vile propaganda for the IDF last year and I want to warn anybody who has been fooled by her that she is a Zionist. She said the most unhinged stuff and spewed so many lies in that video. This review is to save anybody else who is against genocide from using this vile woman for parenting advice

  • Not the same as Parenting Junkie

    I use to love her content, but suddenly it has changed its tone. Never ever let a baby cry it out. Sure parents shouod walk away take a break but to advocate that its okay to let them cry themselves to sleep is contrary to actual studies. The babies stop crying because they accept that they will not be responded to, creating a sense of hypervigilence in their nervous system. Check out Dr Mate for more that.

    Also, whats with the anti feminist content? Totally different than her original content.... more

  • Avital is my HERO!

    I LOVE this podcast and can’t get enough of it. I’ve tried others and quickly abandon them thinking, “I can’t be this perfect! This is crazy.” Avital coaches in a way that feels sane, achievable and supportive. It has helped me so much with my relationship with my children and also with my relationship with myself and my partner. She is brilliant. And I get the sense when I’m listening that she’s caring for me as a mother the way she cares for her children; holding up high standards and at ... more

  • S2, E29!!!!

    This episode should be made a “have-to” episode for each and every parent to listen to!! I’ve been thinking for so long and now that I have kids I found the balance, gentle and authoritarian parenting by themselves don’t work, we create unhealthy children, but finding the balance can save the kids of the future, community, values, boundaries, create resilient children!!!
