Living a Fairytale is more than just Happy Endings

How important is a child to learn proper morals and good values? How do you see yourself aiding children in their journey to become happy and contented? We all know that living a fairytale is more than just happy endings; it's how we get up and face our realities that can differ from person to person. 

They say that a child can only do so much they can handle. I believe no such thing. Just as Princess Wendelyn succeeded in finding the witch's pearls and saving her prince, children can do whatever they want just as their hearts desire it. Do not get me wrong; it is never a form of disobedience when your child fails to follow your every word. It simply allows them to find their own way, make their own mistakes, and see their lives for how they see them.

We do not condemn children to a place where they will feel trapped and unhappy. We are not the dictator of anybody else but ourselves. 

"It's a mistake not to give people a chance to learn to depend on themselves while they are young." -Walt Disney.

While we are set to face the world in rigorous times, it is never too late to be the best examples we could be for our children. They are not pets that we command over, but they are people waiting for their chances to grow and become established individuals in our society someday. 

A fairytale is something we dream of having, a charming partner, a beautiful home, and abundant possessions. But living a fairytale is more than just happy endings. What we desire today is not the actuality we will get in the future. Wanting your children to succeed your way may hinder them from truly thriving in life.
