One rainy evening, Sam’s little girl, Mia, dropped her favorite toy and started crying. Sam rushed over and said, “It’s okay, Mia, don’t worry. Let’s clean it up together.” As they fixed the toy, Sam quietly whispered, “You know, Mia, when something breaks, it’s okay to feel sad. But what’s important is that we help each other and show kindness.” Sam noticed Mia’s big, watery eyes looking up with understanding. The next day, when Mia saw her friend at school feeling sad because they lost their pencil, Mia remembered her dad’s words. She immediately went over and said, “I can share mine with you.” Sam had taught her that kindness wasn’t just something you do for others—it’s something you do with love, especially in tough moments. Mia’s act of kindness wasn’t a big one, but it made her friend feel cared for. Sam knew that by teaching Mia to be kind, he was helping her grow into someone who could spread joy, love, and empathy wherever she went. Kindness in parenting isn’t about perfection; it’s about teaching little hearts to care for others, and watching them grow into compassionate, loving people.
