Thank you for this. Yes, my early childhood taught me to be strong, reliable, compassionate and successful because it came from within myself. What parents do wrong today is shielding their children too much from any disappointments or letting them learn how to cope with failures. Because they become adults who believe 'the world owes to them' they cannot learn compassion for others. How otherwise could so many professionals look on and contribute to the suffering that the last 5 years caused without trying to stop it.
