When asked, what one improvement would children change in the way their mothers and fathers work impacts their lives? With the pressures of life and work on parents and their children, what is the impact of that stress? On the children? The parents?
With all of this stress and pressure, how do parents promote taking on challenges with their children and why is it important for kids to learn the skill of 'taking on challenges'?
