Thank you so much for your comment. I observe the same difference with my children. Sometimes they react very emotionally and are upset when they fail, and other times they don’t even seem to care. What you say about teaching them “to decide if desire for the thing is bigger than the pain of rejection” is very wise! I’ll try this with my kids too. Thanks! I want that my kids learn that failure is an important part of the learning process and it’s natural and even necessary to fail in order to learn and to succeed.
