When Your Baby’s Heart Breaks, Yours Does Too: Halle Berry’s Relatable Parenting Moment
As parents, we all know that sinking feeling when our child experiences their first heartbreak. Recently, Halle Berry opened up about watching her daughter go through this tough milestone, and her words hit home for so many of us.
Berry shared how watching her daughter get her heart broken made a little part of her own heart die too. “It never gets easier,” she said. And isn’t that the truth? Whether they’re five, fifteen, or twenty-five, watching your child in pain never gets easier.
But as Halle said, it’s all part of growing. We’ve all been there, and we know that in six months, this heartbreak will be a distant memory for them. But in this moment? It’s everything. Halle said her daughter feels like she’s dying, and as a mom, all she can do is sit in the pain with her. “This sucks,” she told her daughter. And sometimes, that’s all we can do—acknowledge the pain, be there for them, and wait for time to heal their broken hearts.
It’s a reminder that, as parents, we can’t fix everything—but we can always be their safe place. And sometimes, that’s exactly what they need.
