Learning from Your Kids

The English poet, George Herbert, stated that ‘a father is worth a hundred teachers’. This quote can be applied to our kids. They are little teachers who teach us great things; optimism, desire, imagination, humour, confidence, calm, forgiveness… If it wasn’t for them, we would probably  not have been able to keep young, accepting frustration, adapting ourselves to the unpredictable, to working in a team, time-management, modifying our preferences, to be expendable …

If educating consists in getting the best out of them, kids educate us more than a hundred teachers. Thanks to them we are, or we try to be, better people.
