Being Strong Willed is a Good Thing

For all my strong willed friends who now have strong willed children. Certainly, it is important to develop a sense of timing, respect and courtesy to others, and to know how to best direct their energies. But how will they get the practice of persistence if not with us? Where will they learn how to channel determination if not in our home?

 

If our children are never allowed to practice persistence with us, how will they learn appropriate ways to stand firm?
