Tip Tuesday
You can't protect your children from disappointments. But you can teach your children to cope with them, and even grow from them. First, ask your children how they feel, and acknowledge their feelings. Then ask questions about what happened, so they can understand the experience. Don't try to "fix things" for your children. Instead, help them explore their options by asking "what if?" questions.
