{Warning big mom rant } !! When your child makes a mistake or changes their mind do you let them try again? Do you let them try to fix the problem? In our home I encourage the boys to keep trying. Sometimes, sure it is hard, I think about them needing to learn those hard lessons, so they won’t mess up again and there are limits or times where there isn’t an opportunity to try again, but there are so many teachable moments in the simplicity and repetition of getting to try again... which brings me to what happened today. Today was a first. A big first as a mom! A mamma bear moment, one I felt so deep in my heart. Today while at gymnastics, at the end of class the coach was giving stamps on the kids hands and feet. Next thing I look over to hear my child crying in huge tears and the coach saying “ Well that’s your fault! you chose to wipe the stamp off, your NOT getting another one” the tone she used and the look that went along with it.. as someone with a background in early childhood education I was very upset by this. I quickly went over to Weston. The coach then had left the room and as I wanted to comfort Weston in that moment, I was not going to let her get away with this! I went after her and asked if she thought that was appropriate ? If she thinks children can't try again? She tried to walk away from me, told me to speak to the other coach. And I firmly and kindly said You walked away from a 4 year old child that is crying because you wouldn’t let him have another stamp and your slogan at your place of work says “ where children are first” who is the adult here? She fixed the mistake, she apologized, and Weston wiped his tears and explained that he wanted a different stamp than the one she gave because she had three out. It bothered me to my core ! we are here to teach them to not give up, and it got me thinking to all the times I won’t be there to stand up for my boys, and all the times they will have to show people that they want to try agian and they may not be heard. I just wanted to share this because no matter who you are, always stand up for what you feel is right !! I hope my boys know their mamma always has their backs!
