How do you think you teach resilience in your children? I really want to ensure that my daughter develops this but I'm not really sure what I should be doing. She, and we, are very fortunate in that she hasn't had to deal with much adversity at a young age so far, so apart from her normal school and friendship woes there doesn't seem to be much opportunity. When I look back at my own childhood I pretty much had no option but to be resilient or I would have been crushed. I think we do try to shield our kids from a lot which I'm trying to become more aware of but right now I feel like resilience is probably the best gift I could give her.
