When we ask our child do you want me to listen to you or give you advice; when we are not reaching out to our parental toolbox, we are not avoiding parenting. The goal is to parent with presence. Because in that quiet presence, we build something much stronger than solutions.
We build trust.

We build connection.

We build emotionally secure children who know they can always turn to us—toolbox or no toolbox. Don’t get me wrong—I know that toolbox. I’ve used it many times myself.
It’s filled with love. With good intentions. With experience and wisdom.

But here’s what I’ve come to realize over time… we don’tneed to carry it around on our shoulder like a backpack 24/7.

We can set it down sometimes. Let’s normalize not knowing what to say right away. Let’s normalize just listening.
