Audio episodes are usually for paying subscribers only, but this week’s post is public. This PSA for Mama Bears struck a nerve, and I hope to see it shared far and wide, with mama bears everywhere.

Be a mama bear. Be ferocious in protection of your children, and then, ferocious in protection of all children. Act out of love for your child, not fear of what will happen if you don’t follow the fashion, or the authorities. Do not affirm that which is dangerous. Do not comply with that which is dangerous. Do not let your agreeable nature put your own children in harm’s way.

Please share widely, with anyone whom you think would welcome or benefit from these words.
