It’s time. You knew it was coming, but you had no idea how fast it would actually get here. We are talking about the day when your sweet baby actually grew up and is now beginning the process of changing into a young adult. Because this is a season of so much change, it seems as if our kids can become unsure of themselves almost overnight. As parents we can’t let them stumble their way through. We have the great privilege of sharing with them who they are at this moment and what they can become in the future. If our students can’t trust us to give them straight answers, who can they trust? It’s time to speak to our 6th graders, but mostly it’s time to listen.
