Is your child apoplectic, overcome with rage about the state of the world?  How do they express that rage?  How does that rage trigger you?   Noleca is joined by loved ones, Resham Mantri, Carvell Wallace & Homero Radway to talk about their amazing apoplectic children.  We often experience our children’s expression of rage as chaos due to our programming and traumas.  Chaos is the property of a complex system whose behavior is so unpredictable as to appear random, owing to great sensitivity to small changes in conditions.   In this episode of Raising Rebels, we hear stories of chaos, rage and love.Please be gentle with yourself as you listen.Produced by Queer MediaQUEERMEDIA.co Edited by Marcellino van Callias at La Fam Productions.  Please make sure to rate, subscribe and review this podcast.  You can find us on Instagram @Raisingrebelspod raisingrebels@queermedia.co. Thank you for listening!
