What has your child failed at recently?  Today’s episode we continued taking a look at a few passages from the book, The Parent’s Tao Te Ching by William Martin.  This episode is all about failure being our best teacher.  These passages remind us how wonderful it is to be human and with that comes mistakes.  There are also messages freeing us as parents to realize our life experiences in their fullness both the happy and sad, success and failure all help us to teach our children.  I share a few experiences of my own failure and hardships.  I also relay the story of Sara Blakely, the founder and inventor of Spanx, who was asked by her dad each night at dinner when she was young what she had failed at that week which helped her not be afraid of failure.
