“My heart is shattered. Shattered for Logan. But also for his parents and siblings, and for my parents. I don’t want sympathy here though. That’s not what this post is for,” he said. “Please, please, please, PLEASE be kind. Be compassionate. Be gentle. Be inclusive. Be supportive. Be less critical and judgmental and more of a cheerleader. Don’t be on your kid’s back . Instead, make sure you’ve got their back. Love them and make sure they know it. They have to know they matter.”
