"Doing nothing while your child fails requires great courage and is the way of wisdom. Gentleness when your child misbehaves requires great self-control and is the way of power.
Do not succumb to berating, scolding, interfering, interrupting, nagging, lecturing or controlling your child. Let your gentle presence teach all that is necessary.
Every mistake your child makes is another step forward on the long road to wholeness. Every time you interfere, you both step backwards." - William Martin from The Parent's Tao Te Ching
