"Part of the whole Girl Scout ideal is teaching and learning. We cannot protect our children from bad things entirely but teaching them how to handle things and cope properly, that is one of the best things we will ever teach our children, especially our girls. And it starts with us as the adults in their lives helping them face whatever life throws out there with dignity, grace and self confidence."
