With The Family: Compassion
http://withthefamily5.blogspot.com/2011/01/compassion.html
Give My Kids Red Vines. Friday, January 14, 2011. I am presently reading "The Gifts of Imperfection: Let go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are" by Brené Brown, which I decided to read after watching the author's Ted Talk " The Power of Vulnerability.

Would your son be able to tell you that a couple boys ganged up on him in the locker room and gave him a wedgie? If your teen is depressed can he tell you? Or, do you constantly hold up your expectations of who your...
