We learn how to be resilient and handle difficult things by practicing dealing with difficult things. - Dr. Tina Payne Bryson

"Instead of distracting your kids in moments of challenge, give them the freedom and enough safety to feel their feelings, showing them that you can handle the challenge and that you trust that they can handle it. When they have repeated experiences walking through adversity with enough support, they learn how strong they are and come to know that they are resilient." - - Dr. Tina Payne Bryson
