What should a good parent do when a child falls while learning to walk?
A good parent should not scold or kick the child; instead, they should pick the child up, lovingly set them back on their feet, and get them started walking again. The fall is expected, so the parent responds with gentle help and encouragement rather than harsh correction.
Les explains that children learning to walk do not simply pick up and walk; they fall. A good mom or daddy does not kick them or ask what is wrong with them. Instead, the parent picks the child up, lovingly sets them on their feet, and gets them started again. This illustration shows patient, loving restoration after a stumble.
