 Ah ok I think we’re just disagreeing over definitions then. I’d describe that as permissive parenting. Can’t say I disagree with your original post now. 
 Most gentle parenting is permissive parenting in my experience, no practical difference. 
 Those types of parents tend to get walked over by their children.
