Dear child,⁣ ⁣ I am your safe space.⁣ ⁣ It

Dear child,⁣
⁣
I am your safe space.⁣
⁣
It is the highest calling and the heaviest burden, and I will never jeopardize it for the sake of keeping the peace or sparing someone else’s feelings.⁣
⁣
Because my most important work while you are in my care is to keep you safe.⁣
⁣
Physically safe, mentally safe, and emotionally safe.⁣
⁣
My job is not to please everyone, or get them to agree with the way I do things.⁣
⁣
My job is not to stay quiet to placate other people.⁣
⁣
My job is to create boundaries not only for myself, but for you—and then enforce them.⁣
⁣
My job is to keep you safe.⁣
⁣
It means managing expectations ahead of time, and communicating what my response will be if the boundaries I set are violated.⁣
⁣
It means speaking up if someone or something makes you uncomfortable.⁣
⁣
It means not forcing you to hug, kiss, or touch anyone you don’t want to.⁣
⁣
It means not leaving you alone with someone unsafe.⁣
⁣
It means leaving a situation if necessary to avoid an unsafe person. No matter how embarrassing or inconvenient.⁣
⁣
It means telling people, “I know you mean well, but we have a strategy for responding to that behavior that is based on research and psychology.”⁣
⁣
It means saying no.⁣
⁣
Even if it makes me the bad guy. Even if it’s hard. Even if it makes things unbearably awkward. Even if it alienates me from friends or family.⁣
⁣
Because the truth is—if they genuinely care, they will respect the choices I make, and they will understand . . .⁣
⁣
That I am your mother, and it’s my job to keep you safe.⁣
⁣
That is my most important work.⁣
⁣
And my hope is that by watching me, you will learn how to keep yourself safe someday.⁣
⁣
My child,⁣
⁣
I am your safe space.⁣
⁣
And I promise to never, ever take that for granted.⁣
⁣
Love,⁣
Your mom⁣
⁣

These baby, these are the days I dreamed of. I dreamed of the person you’d become. I dreamed of seeing you fly. Please be patient with me, my love, as I learn to let go and let you stretch your legs and use your voice. Be patient with me as I go through yet another transition and becoming.❤️⁣
