Why Excellence Matters More Than Perfection in Parenting

As a parent, I used to believe that striving for perfection was the only way to give my kids the best. I would stress over every detail, from perfectly packed lunches to flawless homework assignments. But over time, I realized that chasing perfection only led to frustration—for both me and my children. One day, my daughter came home beaming after scoring a B+ on a tough test. Instead of focusing on the missed points, I celebrated her effort and growth. That moment taught me that excellence is about doing our best, not being perfect. Our kids need to know it's okay to make mistakes and learn from them. Let's encourage progress, not perfection! Have you ever struggled with letting go of perfection as a parent?
