Truth! Words don’t teach, experience teaches. They WATCH how we interact with others and ourselves, how deal with things and, for better or worse, emulate it. So well done you, mama!!
Agreed 🩷 parenting is hard but I’m seeing how much of an investment it is to work on myself and seeing these glimpses of how that pays off for my kids 🙏🏼🩷
You’re such a gift , Lacie. I have a 10-year-old son and a 12-year-old daughter, and I have not been treating myself very nicely today because I’m upset with myself about some things and it is rubbing up on them also. It’s been a really bad day, and remembering that we are more than anyone part of us is something I really needed to hear. Thank you. I came to your page for hair loss, I’m staying for emotional courage.
Where did you get the clip on wig? I’m not sure what it’s called. I have Trichotillomania and I would love to get one for myself. I love this video kudos!
I love how you’re encouraging your daughter to appreciate inner beauty and self love. Though I would caution, and you can tell me if I’m being silly, that some kids might find the response of “I’m more than my hair” to a genuine compliment as dismissive or standoff-ish unintentionally. I’d worry it might alienate her a little when she gets older, but having that mindset “I’m more than my hair” is a beautiful one to have ^-^; I’m struggling with my own thinning/loss at 20. So I find the sentiment very sweet
I mean, I guess I appreciate the message and understand the reasoning behind it, but here is a huge portion of personal identity, taking away something that important to a person can often times leave them feeling lost. As I’m sure you’re beginning to experience personally. My son is five years old with his butt when he’s ready to cut it I’ll let him and if he doesn’t want to that’s fine also allowing them to feel a certain level of pride and personal identity with their hair is an important part of personal growth and acceptance, I guess what I’m saying is let them find the balance between the two don’t just force them to feel one way because of what you’re going through
I can take pride in my appearance without attaching it to my identity. Far worse happens when we base our value on our physical characteristics (which we will likely lose at some point in our life just due to the aging process). So I give her all the freedom in the world to do what she wants with her hair while also encouraging her to practice good hygiene. But I don’t see any healthy balance in tying your identity to your hair.
let them embrace their hair… nothings wrong with being confident with your hair this is mind boggling to hear as a black girl who was always made fun of for their hair growing up. I will always takes compliments on my hair and have my hair be apart of my personality because it’s beautiful. There were times where black woman and men were oppressed for the way we look including our hair. I know your kids are White¿ and Mexican but hair is definitely a important thing for a lot of people and nothings wrong with show casing it and using it to express yourself just because others might be insecure.
Not gonna lie I feel like this is pretty dumb. I like the message but just take the damn compliment… pretty weird to say that back. Focus on raising kids that can actually be normal and not kids that help you feel better

This feels like it’s supposed to be satirical.🤔

You missed the importance of this....clearly 😂
@@colettejaques2559 no I didn’t. I even said I like the message. Stop making ur kids weird cuz you have trauma is a fair point to make…
