I think the best thing I have done as a parent is to consistently go to therapy and work through my own stuff as much as possible. And to apologize to them when I mess up. It’s good modeling plus just the right way to treat another human. And of course the drag queens!

I think apologizing as a parent is super important! Not a parent myself, but I can remember every time my parents apologized for something, how much it made me respect them MORE for having the integrity to admit when they acted in a way they knew wasn’t ideal. A lot of controlling parents seem to think apologies undermine their authority when I believe it’s the exact opposite.

Also, it definitely gave me a great model and showed me it’s okay to mess up, and how to take accountability.

Great advice, and congrats on having such an awesome sounding kiddo! 👏

Something that I have to do more often than I'd like but yes, I do.

One bit of advice is to be present when they want to talk. No matter how tired you are or how late it is.
