Children are some of the most vulnerable beings on Earth. As they grow up, they depend on us for nearly everything. They need our friendship more than we need theirs, as our support helps them feel safe and secure. This is a simple truth that they might not fully understand. If they did, we might not see behaviors like procrastination that can frustrate us.
When we don't understand why they act this way, we can feel angry, sad, drained, and helpless. Let's be kind to ourselves and look for helpful solutions to deal with these everyday challenges.
