57. Don’t Interrupt Your Child

Everyone in the house has a right to be absorbed in something without being interrupted. When a child is happily caught up in an activity, parents should try not to come charging over with a question or a change of plans. When people aren’t bursting in on one another, the whole pace of family life slows down a notch.

58. Observe the French Food Rules

French food rituals offer a daily exercise in teaching children how to delay gratification. Kids eat most meals in courses, rather than all at once. They taste foods, even ones they don’t like—a form of coping with frustration. They wait to eat at mealtimes. If they get some chocolate in the morning, they typically don’t eat it until the afternoon goûter. With practice, all of this gets much easier; in fact, it becomes natural and not arduous at all.
