Very important point Muffy, children need encouragement, they need guidance and they need to set goals. If you don’t expect much from your children you won’t get much. We don’t know which child on this planet has the seed of how to cure cancer or the common cold. Each amazing discovery has been by someone thinking a little differently. Expectations are a self-fulfilling prophecy; if the bar is low, the pay out is low, if the bar is high, the pay out is high.

So let your children know every day that you are proud of them and expect them to do their best, set backs are a part of life and temporary, how you deal with them is what sticks with you for life.
