As caregivers, we all want to raise healthy, happy, and independent children who are empathetic, resilient and creative thinkers, all while having the confidence to take on the world.
Sounds easy, right?
There is nothing like a life-altering event to alienate people you thought were your friends.
Failure. Most will agree it’s a part of life. Why is it then that it can feel so scary to imagine failing? We tend to rather avoid, not decide, distract, or do anything to not have to face it.
When it comes to parenting, finding a balanced approach to any concept is what we strive for – whether it’s nutrition, sleep, or discipline. We all have universal goals for our kids. We want them to feel loved, happy, and healthy. We want to do everything we can to optimize their development and set them up for success in the future.
