On Sunday, my kids participated in the competition. Their results were good. But winning is not everything. Karate teaches self-defense and discipline.

Firstborns tend to be competitive and motivated to do things right. My oldest daughter has that syndrome. A few weeks ago, she cried because she couldn’t get good scores on math assignments. I told her to not worry about getting bad grades.

Sticking to one thing is important. But I should not push my kids too hard.
