About: [*Read by the author - Jessica Lahey] In the tradition of Paul Tough's How Children Succeed and Wendy Mogel's The Blessings of a Skinned Knee comes a manifesto and action plan that further explores Jessica Lahey's article in the Atlantic, ''Why Parents Need to Let Their Children Fail,'' about why parents must learn to refrain from stepping in anytime children experience disappointments and frustrations so they can learn from life's inevitable mistakes and setbacks and grow up to be successful, resilient, and self-reliant adults.
