The only way for an adult to raise a great kid is to be a great adult in front of them. Whatever that looks like for them given their circumstances. Children see this. They see you struggling and doing hard things and they can tell. They eat that stuff up. They want to watch you strive and overcome and be a hero. They want to see you being great. There is no other way but to do hard things in front of your kids. It's not about your expectations, it's about what you model for them.
