'If I don't live in the light and ooze positivity, how can my children learn to be positive?'
Anne Bruinn, a mom of two from Vancouver, Canada, has always considered flexibility to be one of her greatest assets when it comes to parenting her two children. So when her 3-year-old son, Ryder, began to asks for pigtails and dresses, she rolled with the punches. Now that Ryder is 9, Anne is sharing what her experience has been like"At first, I thought 'it's just a phase' because that's what people kept saying," Anne told POPSUGAR.
"In the early years I was scared, worried, and anxious. But you can't show that or else your kids catch on and thenare worried," Anne shared."So I slapped on a smile and learned how to shrug [things off]. If people rejected my child, I used to be offended. Now I just feel sorry for them because they will never know the joy of Ryder. It must be so lonely living in a stifling box like that. Negativity has never been my go-to, so it's easy to keep at bay.
Admittedly, being unapologetically open with Ryder is an important element of Anne's parenting handbook. To normalize Ryder's experience, Anne has refrained from having a"formal" conversation with her daughter. Rather, Anne weaves discussions into their everyday activities, like walking to school., as long as she's comfortable and can handle whatever backlash comes her way," Anne explained."It's important to normalizeexperience for kids.
"There are all different kinds of people and children in the world, and somewhere there is someone else who is 'normal' just like you."
