10 Things to Teach Your Kids about Failure

Apr 08, 2015 / General     

Our kids will face failures in life. But instead of allowing them to wallow in misery, here are 4 things to teach your kids about failure. First, not everyone gets a trophy. Be sure your kids understand that while losing is inevitable, it can also teach valuable lessons. Second, everyone has different talents. If your kids fail in one area, guide them in a new direction for success. Third, have perseverance.  Teach your kids that the worst kind of failure is when they choose to give up.  Finally, teach your kids to have a sense of humor. Sure, things didn’t go the way they planned. But rather than resort to anger, teach your kids to laugh and let it go
