Overall, it's been a valuable read that I'd highly recommend to any parent looking to support their child's development for any age, from small children to upper teens.

The author offers practical advice and real-life examples that really hit home for me.

It was reassuring to see that I'm already implementing many of the strategies mentioned, but I also picked up new approaches that I'm excited to try out.

-"They Don't Worry About Pleasing Everyone"
-"They Don't Resent Other People's Success"

Each behavioral pattern includes anecdotes; the thoughts, behaviors, and emotions assigned to each; mental strength strategies for eliminating these behaviors, and common traps leading to their return.
I'm not saying that this is a cure-all book; however, the strategies included can be beneficial in enhancing your mental strength.
