In this short episode, I share with you the value and importance of cultivating resiliency. I think this is what we do with our kids. We see them struggling, especially now. We want to help ease their wrestling and struggling. But if we do this for our kids, then they won’t develop the skills and strength they’ll need when they step out into the world as adults.
Instead, parents need to help foster emotional resiliency in their kids. Emotional resilience refers to one’s ability to adapt to stressful situations or crises. I believe this is needed now more than ever.
Kids are facing a new online world. School, band lessons, play dates, everything is virtual. Physical connection is limited to immediate family and maybe a COVID circle.
