#161 RIE + EC - do they mix

Over the years I've been approached by many, many parents who are practicing RIE - which is a form of respectful parenting that focuses on not interrupting a baby's play - about whether elimination communication complements or contradicts it.

Most of these parents were convinced that EC would be disrespectful, considered an unnecessary "interruption" to baby's play that would interfere with their proper development.

Hmm. Well, I disagree with this. I actually believe the two practices are quite compatible, so I decided to finally research RIE and lay it all out for y'all!

Today I'm going to go through, point by point, RIE's Basic Principles to demonstrate where EC and RIE align nicely...and where they may not.

I also want to introduce you to the lovely idea of RIE! If you haven't heard of it, I hope you learn something new today.
