One of the fun parts of managing this column is that I’m never quite sure how God is going to bring it all together—I just know that he will. For example, when I asked Jenni Schubring to write about how to teach our children resilience, I did not expect her to say, “My take is not very pro-resilience.” Hmm. That hadn’t occurred to me. Can someone really be anti-resilience? Jenni continued, “I’m happy to write something, but I will tell you, it’s a different perspective.” At that point, I was hooked. I loved the idea that this was going to be a nuanced conversation on a topic that I never expected to be so nuanced. So, I present to you two different perspectives on the topic of resilience. I encourage you to read them both and see how you can incorporate portions of each into your parenting—and perhaps even your own life.
