How many times have we told our children that they are so special? What is the message that we are telling them when we say that? Are we saying that because they are so special, they should feel entitled about life?
I do believe that we are all different and unique in ways as individuals, but I do not believe that each of us is that special? I tell my kids that if each of us is special, who is then really special? Then doesn’t make each one of them ordinary, because we are all special?
I do think that my children are special to me, because they are my children. But I think they should go through life just like all ordinary person. They should not be entitled to be treated a certain way, because of feeling special.
