Next Young, Wild, and Three!
That’s our big boy!!! He is sooo good!!. Love him!!
You’re do right. One thing I find really difficult to watch are parents who mollycoddle their kids snd protect from everything that may upset them. Not the best way to set your child up for real life.
What a great story. It is so true that we all try to be the perfect parent. The problem is that we are not perfect ourselves. We can only do our best. As parents’ our goal is to help our children to grow into healthy, successful, happy, and independent adults.
I think it is really important that we let our children see that sometimes we all get it wrong and that what matters is how we pick ourselves up again and do our best to make things good.
I feel like being imperfect is the human condition. We’ve all got room for improvement and we’re all on a journey in that respect. You are absolutely right that teaching our children to deal with disappointment is one of the most important lessons a parent can give. Imagine what sort of adults our children would become if we didn’t?
I think we underestimate how well out kids can cope and try and cushion them too much.Your little one reacted wonderfully and I am sure you had a lovely trip in the park.There is always another time for the cinema.
Emotional resilience is something I’m trying really hard to teach my kids right now.
You’re so right- modern day parenting always seems to put one under pressure. Children surprise us by being so much more understanding and resilient than we think they are. You’re doing a great job with your little one.
