What ever happened to parents who allow their kid's failures to sting a bit or who make sure they learn there are ALWAYS consequences to every action?

Kids will never mature emotionally or develop the skills to handle everyday life problems. Parent who take care of every little thing, without allowing kids to learn to stand on their own two feet, are doing them a great - and I can't say that loud enough - GREAT disservice. If no rain ever falls, roots never run deep. They stay on the surface and are easily blown down and destroyed at the first sign of a storm. Of course there are still some who know this and parent accordingly, but many don't. It's actually sad, how many don't realize they need to teach their kids these lessons with love and compassion, because if they don't, the world will do it - harshly and without a care.

My random thought of the day. 🤷🏼‍♀

@Adogslife Thanks. That's the kind of analogy you get with one who grew up on a farm. Lol.
