[quote=Anonymous]I HATE this phrase. It's so dismissive and invalidating, and frankly seems to assign blame where there is none. One of my children is very resilient. He can handle just about anything that is thrown his way and does well and every situation and context he has found himself in. One of my children is not particularly resilient - it's just the way he is. He has some mental health issues that make changes and new situations very frightening and overwhelming. We (of course) are doing everything we can to help him manage - but he is not innately a wildflower like his brother. He is an orchid. [/quote]
