We, as mothers and/or fathers (including grandparents) can make our children feel safe enough to know (and trust) that they can tell us about ANYTHING that happens to them (and at the time it occurs), even if they know it will be something that we will disapprove of. Our love for our children is not contingent on them being perfect- Loving unconditionally, means just that. …
We mothers (including grandmothers) can be more diligent (and committed) to examine our own attitudes and behavior-Do we tolerate being silenced? Are we afraid of being a disappointment? This is not a yes or no answer-it’s a moment to moment answer-Be awake and stay awake! …
We, as a mothers and/or fathers (including grandparents) can make it our mission to impress upon our children of voting age that they “now” are an incredibly valuable and consequential part of the process of the fate of our country- The right to vote is a blessing that’s been fought for and died for! …
To those that say “my vote doesn’t count in my state”- I’d like to reiterate that it’s our children, who are now of voting age, that are now able to help to turn things around! Remind them every day how important they are! VOTE
