We often think good parenting means removing every obstacle from a child's path.
But some of the most important life skills are built when children face age-appropriate challenges and learn they can work through them.
A puzzle that takes longer than expected. A tower that falls over. A game they don't win.
A problem they need to think through.

The question isn't whether children will face frustration.
It's whether they'll have enough practice handling it before life presents bigger challenges.
