Episode 3152:
Adina Soclof shares four ways parents can give children a healthy relationship with failure: applauding an inventive attempt even when it flops, treating blunders as teaching moments, collecting stories of famous mistakes that led somewhere good, and owning your own missteps out loud. She explains that children who are never allowed to get things wrong become hesitant to make even small decisions or try new experiences, while resilient kids can stumble, brush themselves off and keep going. It is practical parenting advice for raising children who are not afraid of their own errors.
