Good morning, folks I haven’t done one of these videos in a really long time. I want to expand on something I was listening to on the radio earlier. It was a child psychologist that runs one of the clinics here in Louisville and he was talking about how we coddle our kids and how that affects them in later life.
When they are small folks worry, they are afraid the kid is going to fall and get hurt. Well that is a natural response as a parent but then they start getting into grade school some parents are so fixated on worry about them failing in grade school they do everything they can to not let them fail. To shield them from it. In some schools they have gone as far as eliminating bad grades.
And it goes on to sports where no one keeps score. Then middle school and high school. Some parents are so adamant that it's not their kid getting the bad grade. Demanding something be done to change that grade because my kid won’t get into college.
Failures are not allowed. We are taught that we are not allowed to fail. You can't fail. You have to succeed at all costs.
That's the message we keep giving and we coddle them. We don't let them fail. They don't learn to fail.
Then you wonder why, when they grow up they act the way they do. That they are entitled to success. Entitled to get what they want and if they don't get it then it is not fair.
Failure is part of success.
One can't have success without failure.
