The Gift of Comfort

Julie Hames is a graduate of Harvard Law and she for years was the Dean of Students at Stanford University. She says she noticed a trend that more and more parents were lingering longer and longer at school, doing things for their kids which they would naturally do for themselves. Do your kids hear you talk more about their GPA than about their GOD? What happens when we parents are just so success driven? Well, there's many things. One of those things is we can become helicopter parents who hover over our kids  and create environments of comfort That rob our kids of the strength and resilience they need to stand as strong men and women in a godless society.
