THE GOOD DINOSAUR 🦕 (A story about courage and Family)
Every child is different and unique. I’m sure you already know this if you have more than one child. Please let’s not compare them to each other. Love them as they are!
Last week I watched an animated movie about dinosaurs with my son. – The Good Dinosaur 🦖.
The story is about the 2 Adults Dinosaurs and their 3 little babies.
The youngest baby was born with some kind of physical deformity. He was also very small in stature.
You see, because this little dinosaur was born with numbly knees, he finds it really hard to run as fast as his siblings.
However his dad was very supportive of him. He takes him out with him every day to play with him and teaches him life skills. He teaches him lots of skills and how to look after himself.
Initially he struggled with this but eventually he became stronger because he persevered. This is what being resilient looks like.
So why I’m I sharing this story with you?
Here is why…
Sometimes as parents, we sometimes judge our children based on their appearance and how they look. (Consciously or unconsciously)
We say things like, ‘Adam was born that way, so he can’t do this or that’ …
In the film the little dinosaur just needed his dad to believe in him and he was able to believe in himself too.
In the film Arlo (the little dinosaur) shows courage and he later realizes that fear is normal and it’s ok to be afraid sometimes but just don’t give in and face your fears anyway no matter what.
And it shouldn’t get in the way of living your life; you can get through anything if you don’t give up. Because the only way to see the beauty on the other side is by persevering.
So dear parents, let’s try to encourage our children to believe themselves more and they may surprise you.
All I’m trying to say is that our children are capable of a lot of things. All they need is someone to believe in them and give them chances.
I hope this helps 🥰❤️
Happy parenting guys 🥰🥰❤️❤️
When we know better we must do better 🥰🥰❤️
