Oh, Sikieng, there are so many truths in your beautiful article. I can imagine the surprised look on my mother’s face if she were to read this. But the distance is enormous.
I can only hope that, as a parent, I provide this type of love to my daughter. I am at least trying very hard to release my expectations and not burden her with them.
I wish all parents could read this and, more importantly, feel and live it.
That means so much—thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, Selene. I think all of us, in some way, are still learning how to let go and love without attachment. The fact that you're trying is already a beautiful gift to your daughter. None of us do this perfectly, but awareness and effort make all the difference. Wishing you both a journey filled with love, growth, and understanding. ❤️
Really appreciated this part: [Children] need us to be so deeply in love with them, so fully present, that they never doubt their worth for a single moment.
I'm not a mother (yet!) but these insights are really profound, especially as I'm starting to think about starting a family with my partner. Thank you for sharing your experience and perspective so beautifully.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Anna! It means a lot to hear that this resonated with you, especially as you think about starting a family. Wishing you so much joy and love on that journey—it's such a beautiful path to walk!
I really enjoyed reading this. So many wise words 🤎
That means so much, Jennifer! Thank you and I'm really glad it resonated with you.
It really did, so much so, I read it twice 🥰🤎
Wow, twice?! That seriously made my day! Thank you so much for your support! 🥰

I enjoyed reading this. We truly owe our children a healthy home.
Thank you, Doreen! I completely agree—creating a healthy home is one of the greatest gifts we can give our children.
Thank you.
Thank you for reading, commenting and restacking, Deb. I do really appreciate it.
