My mom gave me Raising Cain when I had my first son, because, in her words, "It was just you and me for so long, what do we know about boys?" It was a proud day for me when my three year old patted his wailing baby brother and asked "Are you fwustwated?"

Hey Pearl
Great post! This is a wonderful invitation to consider what it means to be "whole" and experience all that life has available to us, without the compartmentalization of certain emotions that we learn to be negative.
I'm happy to know you are raising your men to be fully expressive. You are right, it all starts so early for us.

I walk into the living room where my son is reading a book on the couch. As I get closer I see that he is crying. Gently, I sit down next to him and ask him if he is okay. He looks at me. “Yeah”, he says through tears, “but this book is so sad. The children in fidelity 401k this book are being treated so meanly.” Thankfully, we don’t have to leave this important process to chance. There is wisdom out there in the world to help. Our goal as parents should be to normalize our children’s emotions. There are no bad emotions, only unhelpful responses to them.
