A Letter to My Sweet Boy
Hey there, my little champ,
I can hardly believe you’re almost 6 years old! Time seems to fly, and I want to hit pause just to keep you as my little Tender Heart forever. Your kindness and sensitivity are sometimes misunderstood, especially in boys, where empathy and tears might be seen as “soft.” Please remember, never let anyone make you feel inferior for being who you are.
There’s so much I want you to understand about the girls in your life. If I could wish for one thing, it would be for you to treat every girl you meet with the same respect and honor you show me. I cherish your optimistic outlook on life. As you grow, promise me you’ll always lead with your heart before your eyes. Look deeper than appearances and see a girl for her true essence—her mind, heart, and spirit. Respect her choices; her body is hers to control.
Be brave and stand up against those who objectify girls. Show them that being gentle and kind is a strength, not a weakness. Teach your friends that girls are just as capable and deserving of respect. Encourage the girls around you to focus on the positives and ignore the negativity. Use your incredible knack for connecting with others to inspire change among your peers. Remember the valuable lessons your dad has shared about treating girls with respect. He’s the kind of guy who stands up for equality.
I know being a sensitive boy can be tough at times. Don’t let the crowd define who you are. You possess a unique power within that gentle heart of yours. Lead by example and inspire others to be their best selves.
You’re strong, brave, kind, gentle, and hilarious. All these qualities can coexist beautifully in you. If you ever feel unsure about yourself, just think of Molly Lou Melon’s grandma: “Smile big and the world will smile right back at you.”
With all my love,
Mom
