Untamed parenting is teaching (more importantly: modeling) that feeling deeply and expressing those feelings honestly IS brave. Letting your heart be seen IS brave.

If you are sad or angry -- that’s because you’re paying attention.

Sensitivity is a superpower. The opposite of sensitive is not brave! The opposite of sensitive is insensitive. No Medal of Honor.

KNOW THIS and make sure your kids know this.
Make sure your boys know. The world is taming them -- insisting they hide their humanity -- and it’s hurting them and all of us.

Brave and Soft.
Fire and Water.
Strong and Weak.
Loud and silent.
We can be everything. We ARE everything. Don’t tame kids into cages of femininity or masculinity- let them be human and whole and free.
Love,
G
