These questions live quietly in many children, even when they are not spoken out loud.
Am I loved?
Am I lovable?
Am I safe?
Do you still love me when I mess up?
Children do not ask these with words. They ask through their behavior, their tears, their anger, and their need for reassurance.
What they need most is not perfection.
They need consistency, repair, and the steady message:
“You are loved. Even when you struggle. Even when you fail. Even when you are learning.”
That message becomes the foundation for confidence, emotional safety, and healthy relationships later in life.
