Exploring Our Children’s Potentials

14 July 2022No Comment

“Thanks” to today’s gadgets, more and more kids tend to say, “I don’t know what I’m good at. I don’t know what I like. I’m not interested in anything actually.”

(But somehow they are interested in spending time with TikTok, IG reels, online games, TV, etc.)

The bigger concern I guess is,
– What do OUR kids do with their potentials?
– How are we encouraging them to explore?
– Do we try new things together with them?
– And when they actually DO something, do we respond with positive encouragements, or do we tend to give negative comments (though jokingly), which potentially deter them from experimenting further?

“Our potential is one thing. What we do with it is quite another.”
– Angela Duckworth

Brie experimented and made some bread yesterday.
“When all homework is done, I thought I try baking some bread”, she said.
Always nice to come home to homemade bread (and nice to see her experimenting)
