We asked Canadian Writer and YMC Member Carla Young to share what makes her an unstoppable mom. Read Carla’s story...
As the mother of a daughter, I know they are watching us for cues about beauty. They hear when we say we don’t like the shape of our bodies, the see us fussing with our hair and makeup each and every morning and they understand that when we make excuses and say “I can’t” that it somehow applies to them.
The statistics on girls leaving sports as they reach the tween years is alarming. Most girls tend to drop out of sports by the age of 12 making it even more important for mothers to show their daughters that girls can be both feminine and sporty at any level of play. It isn’t enough to tell them. We need to show them!
