“Their parents taught them about limits, whether through seemingly inconsequential daily decisions or through momentous turning points. The inheritors learned through experiencing the consequences of their own behavior and as a result were given the opportunity to discover their own inventiveness and resilience. Parents took the long view, steeling themselves against short-term inconveniences and worries.

They grew up determined, resilient, and grateful.”
