Jax Peters Lowell Quote

"A good parent keeps her child from danger, no matter the cost.  We are human shields: a stray peanut may as well be a bullet.  But we can't keep our children from disappointment, nor should we try.  Difficulty is what stiffens the spine.  It's what allows us to grow & be flexible and becomes creative, realistic adults.  And it is often the motivation for real chievement.  How can we keep our children from that?  Relax. Breathe."
