RE: The Power of Disappointment

It is essential that parents allow their children to take calculated risks, always under appropriate safety rules. This helps them develop resilience and problem-solving skills. Avoiding overprotection fosters independence and self-confidence. Guidance and supervision without excessive intervention better prepares them for future challenges.

I think a lot of parents are protecting their children when the cost of failure is low, because it is easier to not have the tears. However, at some point, the cost of failure increases, and the kids aren't prepared to deal with it.
