I wonder what could happen if caring adults affirmed kids, but remained realistic. What if we didn’t “overspeak”? What if we believed in our kids’ potential but shared the truth (even early on) about a focused life, about managing their strengths, and about the effort it would take to turn their potential into performance and maybe even production? What if we became trainers and not just parents or teachers? What if we played the role of a mentor?
