Never help a child with a task at which he feels he can succ

Summary

This quote suggests that it is important not to continually intervene or assist a child with a task they are already confident in completing. It highlights the significance of allowing children to take ownership of their abilities and develop a sense of independence by figuring things out on their own. By refraining from excessive assistance, parents or mentors can empower children to believe in their own capabilities and foster their self-confidence and autonomy. It recognizes the value of giving children the space to grow and learn from their own experiences.
