I was at a parenting conference this weekend and there was a middle school-aged young person there with her mom. She didn't hesitate to speak up in front of a group of adults, with insightful comments and questions regarding issues such as bullying, suicide ideation, and drug use. I was in awe of her courage and confidence, especially since this is not something I could have imagined doing when I was her age! I gave her a token as she was leaving the workshop I facilitated and thanked her for making a difference in the world. I got a huge smile and thank you in return.
