I hope so! I think kids get it pretty easy these days. I know they have their shit to deal with as well - it's not an easy world to grow up in - but a lot of them are also cushioned a bit too much. You HAVE to struggle to grow and learn. I repeat that idea like a mantra.
Kids: 'It's really hard!'
Me: 'Good! You're learning!'
Kids: 'I can't do it!'
Me: 'Yet! You can't do it YET! Of course yoou can't do it NOW - you're learning! STruggle is good! Keep up the good struggle!
and etc.
Copy that, loud and clear.
I think they sometimes forget that we were once kids and growing up was also difficult at times, maybe different reasons, but difficulties are difficulties.
Have you got Netflix? I ask because I just completed a post (for tomorrow) about a doco I think you may be interested in. Knowing you, you might already have seen it, or have some concepts around the situation. Just letting you know; Not asking you to read the post, but click the link to the doco if you want a good watch.
