Yes in school I felt bad when I failed to win. But that bad feeling motivated me to get faster, stronger and to hit harder. By my senior year I weighed 260 and bench 325lbs and squared 800+lbs. No college wanted me because I was to short. So I joined the US Army and never regretted it. Failure pushes us passed what we think is possible and that is good.

The most dangerous word in the English language is "deserve". My existence on this planet merits me nothing. I didn't have much to do with it anyway. NO ONE deserves anything. We either EARN it, or BUY IT. A firefighter does not DESERVE our respect, he EARNS it by his willingness to be a first responder. I bought a car-"GET THE SERVICE YOU DESERVE!!" they tell us. But why do I deserve it? I don't. I buy it, they don't give it to me. I buy it and pay for it and if I don't get it there, I will get it elsewhere. It isn't a matter of "deserve". It never, ever is.

"These snowflakes have the Attention span of a humming bird, the heart of a piece of granet and the forgiveness of a fired bullet." C. C. Clingan, The Book of Solitude.

A couple of years ago I drove by an elementary school. The school's outdoor bulletin board read and I quote,"To all our students you are heroes!" Honest to God that's what it said. What a travesty!

My mom always said "If you don't let your kids fall down they will never learn to get back up".

When I was in school, nobody wanted to be "special". They even had an olympics for it.

After all is said and done we come to learn that its best to be ordinary and normal.

Larry's books are a real inspiration, take them PERSONALLY!

I love listening to Larry!

I've always told my child & grandchild that they're special, wonderful, & smart. But, I also told them to be fair, honest, & kind to others. Respect is important. We don't always receive a prize or win the race, but we have a good time doing it! My kids aren't snowflakes, that's for sure!

Sencible smart man , I'm from and currently live in the UK and the ban of competitive sports in school is a new one on me . I could be true , but I find that hard to believe

I'm 48 and my parents told me that I was special, but they also told me that you have to work for what you want, that nothing is free.

Any time I think about people being "special", I'm always reminded of the Teddy Roosevelt quote: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who neither know victory or defeat. "

I'll puke on the shoes of the next parent who tells me their child is "amazing". I have so grown to hate that word. "Snot nosed kid in the third row"; exactly what my mom used to say. Don't tell me how special you are; show me the special things you can do.

Hallelujah! Learning to lose is oh so important to survive this world.

I told this truth to my kids all the time they were growing up!

It's not just people in their teens and 20s. I'll be 50 this month and as a kid, I saw the start of this. Kids were getting 'everyone' trophies even then and kids were being told they were special then. But my generation has spawned two more generations and that slope has continued the same direction

Failure is important. How better to learn than from your own mistakes? And not only that. Kids must know that sometimes even if you do everything right, you still fail. But you learn and grow each time.

These kids ARE unique and special, just like everyone else on the planet.

All because of....decade or 2 ago there were all these self help motivation speakers who went around the USA speaking that everyone is special and deserve anything they desire. Made us all think we should be entitled to whatever we want. We're paying for it now.

The lesson that learned by losing is figuring out what I did wrong, pick myself up, dust myself off and go on with the rest of my day.

This thinking is sub level. We as parents see the talents in our kids. Our job is to tell them that they are special but most importantly "They have to prove to the world that they are special" That is the Real world take that needs to happen.

I didn’t know Dr.Robotnik was American...

Losing is good... it helps you grow. Without failure you never learn or try and better yourself

Another word that parents overuse is "awesome." Every little thing their child does is simply awesome. And, these kids grow up thinking the world revolves around them.

Sometimes the truth hurts.

Only with failure we develop, grow and over-come obstacles to build resilience

Loosing is learning, winning is only ok when it is earned.

I adore the word "snowflake" it just fits so well. The fact they are whining and drying about THAT too now... even BETTER.

Whining about being called a whiner is an odd response, yet predictable. Loss and failure are important keys for finding out what works and what doesn't.
