The term anti-fragile describes things that have the capacity to not only tolerate stress but to flourish and grow as a result of it.
Everybody will face completely unexpected events. When we have limited exposure to unexpected events, we will likely find navigating them difficult. However, when our brain and cognitive processes encounter unexpected events, they learn to adapt and grow, making them more likely to navigate uncertainty successfully.
Parents and educators should help children learn and grow by letting them face risks and stressors, not shielding them from them.
