I've been pondering parenting style today. When your child is hurt or angry or upset, do you charge in and defend them? Or do you try to help them accept and tough it out? I tend to think you should take the opportunity to help them understand that things don't always go as planned. Although my first instinct would be to charge in to fix things or whatever, I think it's good when things go wrong. Kids need to learn how to cope when things don't go the way they want.
What do you think?
