WHILE composing the blog post immediately below, Dad visited the FP website and stumbled upon this question and related article:
Dad believes that failure is a normal and healthy part of learning. He has had ample experience with it. However, coupled with tenacity, he has also enjoyed failure's polar opposite: success. Why would he deny that to his own kids?
Moreover, why would it even be an issue worthy of an article? He thinks that it may have to do with parenting differences between men and women, or at least the perceived differences.
Are moms, generally speaking, more likely to intervene when their kids struggle with a task, or is the article premised on false stereotype?
