Learn From Life's Disappointments

Children need to expect and learn that there will be a time in their lives that they will encounter crossroads.

One of the things I try to instill in my girls is that there are two types of people. Those who become bitter when they encounter failure or people who disappoint them. Others, I tell them, are those who learn and grow from the helpless feeling.....and become better for it.
