Whoever said there is no such thing as ‘failure’ is not facing reality! Of course there is such a thing. It is in the dictionary. It means ‘non-performance of something due or expected’. To refuse to accept the concept is to refuse to face reality and to prepare our children to handle failure in every day life. In the years following World War 2 we could be sure of getting the first job we applied for. Not so today. There are times we don’t meet expectations, when we don’t get onto the team, and when we don’t win. This is life, and this topic teaches us how to learn about handling failure, and how to teach our kids to deal with it.
