Fear is Your Friend: Why it’s important to not avoid ‘feeling scared’ as a parent

Today Terry and I are going to discuss something that our world has certainly been facing: FEAR.  Of the 5 basic emotions: happy, mad, sad, hurt and scared, I think it’s safe to say that fear is one of the hardest for us all to process and deal with.  I know it certainly has been a tough emotion for me to navigate growing up in a home where fear was present, but never openly discussed. I was not given the tools to deal properly with fear and I’m sure many of you are in the same spot I was. I want to encourage you, families … that we have the opportunity to do it different with our kids as we raise the next generation of human souls.  Fear is not the enemy. Fear is our friend!
