I am all about owning my own emotions. I think is very counterproductive to tell someone to stop feeling what they are feeling or that their feelings are "inappropriate" or "wrong". I have a good cry and a good shout every so often and it helps make that happie times happier.

Definitely! Sadly, it's all too common amongst men. We shun our feelings, tell ourselves we're being like a 'woman' but mostly it's our insecure fathers still talking to us.
I hope that my boys all grow up knowing that they can feel however they are feeling without judgement...as a mom of all boys I hope I am doing right by them
It's the most important thing. If you're getting them to own their emotions then you're doing well in my books!!
