As shown above, butterflies must struggle to emerge from their cocoons.
If you try to help it escape its cocoon, IT WILL DIE!
Is there a lesson here for parents?
I think so.
If you pamper your children, will they be adequately prepared for the rigors of adulthood?
They are growing up in a world of uncertainty and a degree of chaos in society.
Shouldn’t your kids have chores to perform around the house?
And shouldn’t those chores be strictly enforced?
How about when they are teenagers and eligible to join the workforce?
They should work whether your family does or does not need the money.
Every parent should, of course, love their kids.
Every parent should also, however, equip them with the tools needed to become self-sufficient adults.
When they face struggle as adults, they will be able to draw upon their struggles as children.
If not today, when?
