Sometimes, no matter how hard I try, I feel like a failure as a parent. Sure, there are obvious things, like losing my cool when they are repeatedly disobedient, but the times that make me feel most like I have no idea what I'm doing or how to correct it are when a child is just plain inconsiderate and selfish.
.
Sadly, my failure has been compounded repeatedly lately. Anyone know how to instill compassion and graciousness in children? Is this something that only comes naturally and cannot be taught? Is this an exercise in futility with some kids? When does NOT having these qualities become a cause for real concern?
