Hi there,

Thank you so much for reaching out and reading my post! I’m glad my work has sparked a few conversations in your inner circle, after all, your blog is about mommies sharing their motherhood moments!

About The Little Mermaid, which has been a favorite of my middle child (B) for years, please know that I was not condemning the film. Actually, I picked it because it is brilliant in portraying an intricate father-daughter relationship. King Triton does indeed soften when he interacts with his youngest daughter Ariel (as any good father should), however, he does not let her affirm herself in her decisions to explore the human world. Ariel’s voice is unheard in her interactions with her father unless she agrees with him completely. This is typical of an Authoritarian Parent, and this is what I aimed to highlight in using this example.

Thank you also for the tip for colic babies. I don’t know much about collard greens juice (I will look into it although my daughters are in elementary school now), but I’m sure your tip can help mommies out there research more about this option!

Thanks again for reading and please keep in touch!

Talk soon,

Thank you for such insightful post about the various styles of parenting. While, I have gained information reading your article I also found myself conversing over a few points made.

First point, my favorite Disney movie, The Little Mermaid, classic tomboy. Ariel’s tomboy nature is a masculine behavior with a feminine structure. Although Ariel’s father was a dominate king when he interacted with Ariel he softened his masculinity that nurtured Ariel’s femininity. As stated, “The problem with King Triton’s parenting style is that, eventually Ariel grows up. Rejecting his authority, she turns to the dark side (the evil Ursula) to create herself an identity other than the one enforced by her father.” I don’t agree that Ariel’s refute as an adult was a direct result of rejecting her father’s authority rather her demanding her father to acknowledge Ariel as an adult in areas Ariel’s father dominate masculinity would not allow him to comprise to. I highlighted a few assumptions of tomboys that are talking points for my blog. Feel free to visit https://www.mommynmetours.org/2023/07/the-best-of-us-girls.html to caption the behavior of a tomboy.

Second, medicine is always interesting to me because of the different elements human nature contributes to create a habitant environment. I’m pretty sure baby is older now perhaps this old remedy will come handy. I experienced colic with my newborn as well; however, a doctor visit was not my first thought. Immediately, my mind went holistic approach. The holistic approach to rid colic is the juice from greens. A small portion of clean collard greens juice will help baby detoxification system. Did wonders for me.

I do not advise to discredit your doctor or avoid your doctor for a holistic approach per mommy experience. Add a home remedy to your list of at-home care.

TTYL,
