With safe spaces and trigger warnings designed to \"protect\" kids, many adults worry that children don’t have the resilience to reach their greatest potential. Amy Morin, the author who identified the characteristics that mentally strong people share, now gives adults—parents, teachers, and other mentors—the tools they need to become mental strength trainers. While other books tell parents what to do, Amy teaches parents what \"not to do,\" which she says is equally important in raising mentally strong youngsters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a foster parent, psychotherapist, and expert in family and teen therapy, Amy has witnessed first-hand what works.
