Canceled: Children Who Will No Longer Talk to Their Parents Meridian Magazine
—
In 2020 I wrote an article about the upcoming election admonishing parents to teach their children about calmness and the peaceful transition of power amidst the emotionally charged political debates and the controlling cancel-culture controversies. The day my article was posted my social media accounts got canceled. Apparently talking about calmness made someone mad. It took lots of work to get my content back on my social media pages. To this day, the pages still don’t work properly.
When I got canceled, my relationships and communications were being controlled and I felt hopeless to do anything about the situation. Cancel-culture didn’t end after the 2020 election. In fact, there is more cancel-culture than ever before. Cancel-culture has infiltrated our media, businesses, classrooms, and even our homes and families. What is cancel-culture? How are we canceling parents? What are the negative consequences of canceling parents? And, what can we do to restore our homes and families back to functional and healthy parent/child relationships and communications?
