Berry’s experience illustrates how parental control over the outcomes of our children’s lives is an illusion. “We have our internal check lists to measure and judge ourselves against one another,” she said. “And even if we are simply aiming for the best outcomes for our own children, look what happened to Michael and other children bullied to death.” Berry says that Michael’s death reinforces a simple truth about judging others. “The arrogance of humanity is our greatest downfall,” she said. “Inherent biases create the judging that we feel its okay to pass it on. We need to change how we see ourselves so we can be ourselves.”
