Tomás Melendo reflects on education and the importance of tolerance to frustration within the family context. He emphasizes that parents must take responsibility for shaping their children's character by promoting their autonomy and confronting challenges, rather than overprotecting them. He criticizes the current trend of shielding children from difficulties, which prevents them from developing essential virtues such as temperance and strength. He highlights that the ultimate goal of education is to raise individuals who are capable of love, as happiness depends on the ability to love well, rather than achieving success or material well-being.
