Our society loves to place people in simple categories of good and bad. And we think we can change this behavior with punishments and rewards. Both just lead to performative change. Not real change. Real lasting change comes from the development of new skills and knowledge. Not being penalized for the skills and knowledge you you don’t possess. #blackparenting #consciousparenting #gentleparenting #blackmotherhood #blackmomsbelike #thejacksoncrew #positiveparenting #respectfulparenting #consciousteacher #blackmoms #parentingtips
