Harrowing surveillance video shows the moment a 10-year-old girl raced to save her toddler sister from drowning after getting stuck in an inflatable tube.
This is how it is with big kids: the older our children get, the more the things they need comforting from are not things we can do much about. When they don't have friends, we can't set up playdates for them. When they don't understand their homework, we usually don't understand it enough to help them, either. When someone breaks their heart, we can't (and shouldn't) go try to talk them into loving our baby again.
