The challenge as a parent is letting your kids fail in the right ways because that's where we do most of our learning.

You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.

With the right help, children have a good chance of overcoming their issues while they are still young and can have the bright future they deserve.

I am not very tough with raising my children, but you can argue that to be more tough will help your children.

When you give kids the tools necessary to change their destiny, it's really empowering.

I think the greatest challenge between child and parent is communication.

I think that the only way to teach is by example, as children will more easily follow what they see you do than what you tell them to do.

The desire for self-improvement is vital. There is no point in pushing children; they need to be the ones who want to learn new skills.

Unfortunately, kids are led to believe things are easier to achieve than they really are.

Obstacles, of course, are developmentally necessary: they teach kids strategy, patience, critical thinking, resilience and resourcefulness.
