It was like an Academy Award winning performance.
She was like acting like the girl's mom.
The dad was acting like the girl's dad.
She's like, we rehearsed this.
You did great.
And then she said, my favorite words of all, she was like,
Nervous is normal.
And I don't think we're saying that enough to kids so that when they experience their heart racing and their breathing does shift and maybe this kid was sweating like crazy, he later told me, he assumed something's wrong as opposed to nervous is normal.
What teenage boy is not nervous asking a girl to do a dance and walking up to the door and knowing I'm going to have this encounter?
with her family.
And it wasn't until later that night that his mom circled back, which I thought was so great, and said, hey, I want to go back to what you said in the car.
You made this declaration that you were having a panic attack.
And I want to say to you, I don't think you were.
Absolutely.
Because it would have escalated.
I would add this.
I want, in response to your question, a lot of failure.
Yes.
I want a lot of failure.
And I want kids to be trying activities that they're not going to be fantastic at because every one of us as adults know I'm going to end up in experiences where I'm not fantastic at something.
