Today I spoke with a representative of #KidPower https://www.kidpower.org/

-- a child safety organization teaching child protection and personal #safety skills to adults and children to prevent #bullying, #abuse, abduction, and other violence.

The organization is worldwide, but banned in #Russia by #Putin -- the bully-in-chief.

The power of the #AssertiveAttitude right here!

"People listen to you better and bother you less when you communicate with an assertive attitude of awareness, calm, respect, and confidence."

So what do I want to write about and why?

Most of my ideas lately have revolved around cool stuff I'm doing with my kids that I want to share with the world, whether it's #KidPower or telling a #PickleStory at bedtime.

I don't live up to my own parenting standards, and I want to get better, and I wish there were more resources available to help me with the goals I have. So at least I can write up my own experiences with the goal of finding like-minded people to learn with.
