From natural disasters to economic meltdowns, from wars abroad to tragic shootings close to home, this year brought to light the increasing complexity of the world in which we raise kids. Our natural instinct as teachers, parents and caretakers is to protect children from hardship, yet we know walking between the raindrops of adversity is not possible. Instead of sidestepping challenge, we can teach kids to cope positively, to learn and grow from adversity. We can arm our youth with skills of resilience, and these lessons can begin in the classroom. Great scoopl Christine!

Many wish to remove adversity from children's lives. Knowing this is impossible, preparing students with a positive and resourceful internal dialogue is so important to their resilience. I like your imagery of walking between the raindrops. it captures the essence of the parent scramble to protect their children from adversity. I have certainly shuffled my way with my children through some rainy days, ended up soaked, and with a good laugh and some quality down time, they grew from the experiences.
