Instilling Resiliency (or Grit) in Your Kids

In today’s podcast we’re gonna talk about instilling resiliency, or grit, into your kids life. And spoiler alert it starts with you. Let’s do this! ----------- What’s up healthy dads? This is Mike Ruman, founder of HealthyDads.com. Story I love my kids but sometimes they can be, well, a bit lazy. I know, so can I, but as a parent I wanted to know how to instill resilience into our kids. We want them to push through when the going get’s tough. But how do we teach that? First the definition of resilience. the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness. I think ‘grit’ is a probably a better word. Just sounds cool, and easier to spell and pronounce. I asked our therapist this question. He said ‘good question, let me get back to you’. The next time I saw him he gave me this article on resilience. Basically what the article said is that resilience skips a generation.
