    Studies show that kids’ emotional success is much less dependent on the quantity of difficult things that happen to them and much more on their experience with them.

They are challenging because new behaviors take more effort and they can be uncomfortable. It’s easier to just do what we’ve always done…and our lower brains like ease.
