The Parenting Place

🤩Tomorrow night, Friends!!! Roxy Theater 7:30pm

*PLEASE SHARE!* Coming up this week...It's going to be a great night!

❤️❤️❤️

Perhaps if angry little girls were heard
instead of silenced,
there wouldn’t be so many hurting women
struggling to understand and love themselves.

Perhaps if tearful little boys were comforted
instead of shamed,
there wouldn’t be so many angry men
struggling to express and empathize with emotion.

And vice versa.

Perhaps if children’s emotions were understood
instead of punished, there wouldn’t be
so many armored people
struggling to be connected and authentic.

Children need to feel all their emotions,
without fear of rejection
to mature into their healthiest true selves.

Being hard on children
does not make them stronger.
People are strengthened through
compassion and understanding,
regardless of gender or age.
Lelia Schott

🩷Let's give our kids the most grace during back to school days 🩷

Back to school can elicit a lot of emotions…my son is very excited, while my daughter is struggling with some fears and worries.

I encourage us all - educators, families, and students, to dig deeper, beyond the surface. This takes connection and relationship.

Still reflecting,
Amanda P.

💚💙Fabulous opportunities for our youth💚💙
