Todd Talk: Strong Roots Build Resilient Kids in Shifting Culture
A 60-second conservative commentary with humor and heart.
My friends, America’s kids need stronger roots.
We can’t bubble-wrap life. Disappointment will come. Failure will happen.
Resilience isn’t built by removing obstacles. It’s built by overcoming them.
We should let our kids struggle a little. Let them solve their own problems. And here’s something radical for some — let them hear “no.”
Pair that with love, stability, faith, and truth, and you’ve got a winning formula.
Strong roots grow strong adults.
And someday, when culture inevitably shifts again — because it always does — resilient kids will be prepared for whatever comes their way.
They won’t crumble at criticism. They won’t fold under pressure. They’ll stand steady when others wobble.
We don’t prepare children for the world by making them soft.
We prepare them by making them stronger.
