Tara and Max

I recently had the privilege to observe one of the coolest parent-child relationships I have ever seen. Tara treats Max with a rare respect for his creativity, his intelligence, and his personhood. Max in turn is an extraordinary young man.

I've known Max and Tara for almost 4 years now, and can only agree with you! As a Mom of 3, I know too well the tricky territory of raising children to be both confident and independent, yet sensitive and respectful. It's hard enough for us to do, let alone instill these qualities in our kids. Well, anyone who has the opportunity to spend time with these two will learn about this sage parenting style, in a way that reading advice in a book will never do. (Thanks for reminding us of the important things, Tara!)
