We all want our kids to be happy — but they also need permission to feel EVERYTHING. Because happiness isn’t the only emotion that belongs.

When children learn to name their feelings — I’m sad, I’m angry, I feel scared — they learn that emotions aren’t threats, they’re messengers.
They don’t have to hide or shut down to stay loved.

So many of us were taught that silence was strength — that calm meant control. But real strength is being able to feel without fear. To stay present in discomfort and still choose connection.

That’s why teaching emotional language matters. It’s how we break the cycle of shutting down and start raising kids who can speak what hurts before it hardens.

Because every feeling they can name is one they can move through…

And that’s how they learn that they are stronger than the storm. ❤️
