When My Kids Wanted To Give Up

As A Purely Mathematical Fact, People Who Sleep Less Live More.

I Sort Of Feel Like People Are Not That Honest About Their Own Parenting. Take Any Teenage Household; Tell Me There Is Not Yelling And Conflict.

Parenting Cannot Just Be One Size Fits All.

Western Parents Worry A Lot About Their Children's Self-esteem. But As A Parent, One Of The Worst Things You Can Do For Your Child's Self-esteem Is To Let Them Give Up. On The Flip Side, There's Nothing Better For Building Confidence Than Learning You Can Do Something You Thought You Couldn't.

I See My Upbringing As A Great Success Story. By Disciplining Me, My Parents Inculcated Self-discipline. And By Restricting My Choices As A Child, They Gave Me So Many Choices In My Life As An Adult. Because Of What They Did Then, I Get To Do The Work I Love Now.
