🔊 Are you in the cop, coach, or consultant phase of parenting? 👨‍👨‍👧‍👦

Last week's podcast episode of Building Pathways to Healthy Minds welcomed educator and school leader Kelly Broaddus. Here, she shares how parenting evolves over time, from setting boundaries in the early years to becoming more of a coach and consultant as children grow. As hard as it can be to let go, one of the greatest gifts we can give our kids is the confidence to navigate life while knowing we’ll always be there to support them. 🌱 💝

💚 Mental Health Matters All Year Long 💚

As Mental Health Awareness Month comes to a close, we hope you’ll continue reflecting on what a “good day” means for you and the children in your life. Remember, for a child, a “good day” might include:
💬 Feeling safe enough to share their feelings
😊 Hearing encouraging words from a trusted adult
❇️ Having conversations where they feel seen and heard

ChildBuilders believes every child deserves more good days—not just in May, but every day of the year. Let’s continue building a world where empathy, connection, and emotional well-being are part of everyday life.✨

🇺🇸 This Memorial Day, we honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

At ChildBuilders, we believe one way to honor their legacy is by creating safe, supportive communities where every child can thrive. As we remember and reflect today, may we also lead with compassion, service, and care for the next generation. Our children are the future and teaching them the value of freedom, kindness, and responsibility helps shape a stronger tomorrow. 🌱🎖️

💬 As John Adams said, "Children should be educated and instructed in the principles of freedom."

💚 National Prevention Week 📅

This week, we're joining SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) to highlight the power of prevention, bringing communities together to promote mental health and well-being. Prevention starts early. When children learn skills like emotional awareness, empathy, and resilience, they are better equipped to make healthy choices and navigate life’s challenges. ChildBuilders believes prevention is key to building safe, healthy, and thriving communities.

🎯 Ways you can take action this week:
✅ Start a conversation with a child about feelings and choices
✅ Model healthy coping skills
✅ Share your substance use prevention and well-being experiences with children

Together, we can build healthy communities where every child feels supported, safe, and strong.🤝

🌺 Celebrate Mothers! 💐

Today, we honor the love, strength, and care that mothers bring into the lives of children every day. At ChildBuilders, we know that nurturing relationships are the foundation for a child’s emotional well-being and resilience. Whether it’s a comforting hug, a listening ear, or words of encouragement—these moments matter.

Remember to take a moment to let a mother in your life know how much she means to you. Let her know the impact she’s made! Small moments of appreciation can mean everything. 💖
