The EASIEST way to raise Successful Children in a Competitive Society by doing LESS

Once upon a time, a man found a Butterfly cocoon.

The man watched for hours, eager to see the butterfly emerge as it fought to squeeze its body through a tiny hole.

Then nothing.

The butterfly appeared to cease moving – it looked to the man that the butterfly had gone as far as it could and could no longer struggle.

So, with good intentions, the man felt he had to assist the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the last portion of the cocoon.

The butterfly no longer had to fight and emerged effortlessly when the man split the cocoon apart.

As it emerged, the man realized it had a swollen body and short shrivelled wings.

The man kept watching, expecting the butterfly to spread its wings and fly away.

However, this did not happen.

The butterfly spent the remainder of its short existence crawling on the ground with a swollen body and little wings, unable to fly.

Although the man had good intentions, he didn't understand that the cocoon's role was to supply the butterfly with the STRUGGLE and RESISTANCE it needed to GROW. The constraint imposed by the cocoon's tiny entrance is required since it drives fluid from the butterfly's body into its wings. This struggle allows the wings to GROW and ready the butterfly for FREEDOM once it EARNS its way out of the cocoon.

Most parents are like this man, treating their child the way the man treated the butterfly.

Most parents OVERPARENT their children.

They desperately want to make their child succeed by providing more help that is more than necessary. Overparenting is counterproductive because it makes the children dependent, entitled, and lacking the essential life skill to become successful.
