Here is an article written by Tina Plantamura, entitled 6 Things I Wish I Had Never Told My Children, which appeared in the Huffington Post in 2015. In the article the mother of a high school graduate reflects on the things we may have told our children in the early years, and wish we could ‘untell’ them, in the preparation for real life.  Everything from respect, to hard work, to accepting that we are not special…just that we are unique and have strengths and weaknesses and are not greater or less than anyone else in the world.
