Dear Young Girl with the Articulate Voice,

It has come to my attention that you might expect me to address you in a manner that involves reprimanding you for your outspoken nature. You may be bracing yourself for a lecture about the importance of silence in the face of authority. However, I am here to offer you a different perspective.

This discussion is not about stifling your opinions or diminishing your voice; rather, it’s about celebrating your ability to express yourself. It’s crucial for children—particularly young girls—to recognize the significance of their voices. They must understand that their thoughts and feelings are valid and deserve to be acknowledged. Unfortunately, parents often inadvertently suppress their children’s viewpoints, which can hinder their development.

Key Points to Consider

  • Strive to use your words to promote kindness rather than negativity.
  • Never hesitate to speak up about issues that matter to you.
  • Remember, you have every right to express your thoughts.
  • Your voice can inspire both yourself and those around you.
  • Always communicate with respect and humility.
  • Commit to honesty in your expression.
  • Raise your words, but refrain from raising your voice.
  • Practice mindfulness by thinking before you speak.
  • Acknowledge that your opinion is just as valuable as anyone else’s.
  • The most impactful opinions are grounded in facts, logic, and sound reasoning.
  • Importantly, don’t allow others to silence your voice.

These principles serve as a foundation for utilizing your articulate voice effectively. As you grow, you will undoubtedly acquire more insights into communication and discourse. Let these suggestions guide you on your journey.

You might wonder why I refer to your voice as “articulate.” It’s because, more often than not, when you engage in dialogue with your father and me, you present valid arguments that deserve our attention. I take comfort in knowing that you possess the confidence and character to make your voice heard—something we should always encourage.

While some parents may be concerned about having a child with a strong voice, I embrace it. I am confident in your future, and do you know why? Because you are my daughter, a reflection of my younger self.

Your determination in navigating life, its challenges, and the conversations that ensue is commendable. Many influential individuals have thrived because they refused to let their voices be muted, and you are no different.

Sincerely,
Your Mom
