The Curious Whether and How - Paperback

Edited: December 2025

Two curious questions: Whether? How?

We don't know whether something will happen, but we can choose how we will respond.

When they were young, I recall having struggled with the idea of whether it's healthier to shelter my own children, or to discuss some of the many controversial issues. Though my children may not be going through a particular problem personally, perhaps they know someone who is.

Are some subjects too sensitive to discuss?

Our children may be hiding their feelings, and silently begging for discussion ...sometimes not.

Sometimes it is difficult to put into words how one feels. We certainly need to give others our understanding ...and sometimes that requires discussion, while others may only be seeking silent support. In either case, it's called 'love'. And what everyone needs foremost ...is love.
