If your child is too afraid of telling you something important about themselves or their lives, that is a YOU problem

Did you tell your parents everything in high school?

I smoked weed for the first time when I was 13, I didn’t tell my parents. Is that because my parents are bad? I didn’t tell them I had sex with my first girlfriend, does that make my parents bad? I didn’t tell them I was with my homies and he was speeding down gardener road, going 100.

Are my parents bad?

Public servants exist to protect children from risks to their health and safety, including risks at home.

And we have standards for that, if parents suspect abuse, they have to report it. Whether it’s for the + community, or if it’s for the straight cis community.

Nobody has a right to abuse their children.

I agree.

If you want to know about their lives and challenges, you need to make yourself a safe person for them to confide in.

I agree.
