@drbeckyatgoodinside: Growth mindset is the idea that our struggles, our setbacks, are on the road to success, as opposed to the idea that our setbacks and struggles are the enemy of success. Our goal as a parent is not to get our kids from not knowing to knowing as fast as possible. Our job is to teach our kids how to tolerate the space in between. Frustration tolerance is one of the most important skills for life - after all, the more we can tolerate frustration, the more we can learn. The more skills our kids have to stay in this uncomfortable space, the more time they give themselves to learn new things. If you do this exercise with your kid today, then the next time they get frustrated you’ll be able to say, “Oh yeah you’re in that learning space. This space is frustrating and I know you can handle it.”
