I think some parents fall into a trap, teaching their kids that everything is always perfect and everyone is always a winner.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If children can't handle competition when it's necessary, or take some criticism, or never strive to be better because their parents inadvertently programmed them to believe they are already the best even when they're not, then they are in for some serious shocks and bumps down the road.
Everybody thinks they have the answer to how to be a good parent. Here's mine: Everybody's gonna make mistakes.
There comes a point in your life when you realize your parents aren't perfect.
Some parents believe that competition helps prepare children to succeed. Others fear that their children will not be able to handle failure.
All parents want their kids to be on a healthy track to success.
Parents are sometimes a bit of a disappointment to their children. They don't fulfill the promise of their early years.
Parents don't make mistakes because they don't care, but because they care so deeply.
We're taught at such a young age that you can always be better and that you're never perfect and that you're never good enough.
I believe that children are, by nature, very forgiving. I don't think children expect their parents to be perfect. I think they demand that their parents be real.
I think every parent takes more pleasure in seeing their child succeed than seeing themselves succeed.
