Back It Up - You Think I am Going to Let a 16 Year Old Call Me Out????


Thanks to my 16 year old son being a true smart ass, I had to stop and take a good look at certain behaviors I exhibit.  Those darn kids (you know what I really want to say)!  I have known for a very long time that I always needed to be in control, or at least feel that I am in control.  What I have not done is sit back and peel the onion off all the emotions I have stored so deeply in my own proclaimed cocoon.  I have not felt comfortable enough to trust that my true feelings...or believe my true emotions would be accepted and validated.

So, here I am with (3) teenagers and, I am taking a stand.  I am taking a stand to my own insecurities.  I am going to step back and truly believe that I can feel emotion without judgment.  I am going to be me without worrying about what I look and sound like to others.  I am going to be me, without any regrets and be okay with it. 

Hey, my 16 year old called me out and it is about time that I step it up.  You know teenagers, you have to be able to back your SHI$ up!
