Tips for Gentle Parenting

Hi, I’m a mother of a beautiful (coming to) 11 month old baby girl and have been watching ways on gentle parenting on YouTube. I have also tried them on my baby and I must say, you need a lot of patience. I learn to understand that kids cry because we’ve set boundaries for them, meaning to say when they cry, someone’s gonna come to them, so they use that method for attention. When in actual fact, you can teach them otherwise. Anyone else tried gentle parenting before? I’d like some advices pls!
