If such examination is discouraged by fearful tactics - we must not shy away from soulful searching. — T.F. Hodge

As a mom, you have all these situations you go through, and you're like, 'What is going on? Is this normal? Is this a phase? Or what is this?' and then you feel silly for asking questions because you think, 'I'm a mom - I'm supposed to know these things,' but you don't. — Britney Spears
