'As a parent, it’s tough to watch your kids make mistakes or fail at something, but I think it’s essential. Here’s why.'
My daughter quit her job over the summer, even though I warned her she might regret it. The pay was good, she didn’t have to work a lot, and she loves to spend money. But she was determined to leave it. In the months since, she hasn’t found another one, and her bank account has run dry.
When my son was a sophomore in high school, he hated history class. I went round and round with him with no luck. One day, I told him if he wasn’t going to do his schoolwork or get the extra help he needed, there was nothing I could do. I wasn’t about to do it for him. Ultimately, he failed for the year and had to retake it.
I don’t believe failure is a bad word. It shows where we still have work to do, and sometimes it can teach us it’s okay to let go of something that isn’t meant to be. It also helps them appreciate the times when they succeed more. It gives them a basis for comparison — plus they know the victory is theirs.We can warn our kids about certain things over and over. We can tell them staying up too late the night before a test isn’t a good idea, or that we don’t trust one of their friends. Of course there are times when it’s necessary to intervene in their life to keep them safe.
