They discuss family accommodation, resilience, knowing when to challenge a child, and how parents can help kids discover that discomfort is survivable. Parents will be encouraged to know their individual children and help them grow in confidence by facing appropriate challenges while grounding their security in God. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/celebrate-kids-podcast-with-dr-kathy-253693/episodes/discomfort-is-survivable-helping-kids-build-resilience/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/celebrate-kids-podcast-with-dr-kathy-253693/discomfort-is-survivable-helping-kids-build-resilience.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
