Episode 2950: Dr. Laura Markham explains that courage isn’t the absence of fear, it’s choosing what’s right even when fear is present. She shows how children develop moral courage not through lectures but by watching the integrity and everyday actions of the adults around them. Parents who model honesty, empathy, and accountability help their children grow into people who can stand up for what matters most. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.peacefulparenthappykids.com/read/courage Quotes to ponder: "Courage doesn’t mean not being afraid. In fact, in many situations that might qualify as stupidity. Courage means being afraid and doing the right thing anyway." "The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands in times of challenge and controversy." "Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear."
