The hectic schedule of his older kids leads CatholicMom.com contributor Jake Frost to consider the power of choice and how to teach them to decide between competing good things. One of the hardest things in life is choosing among many competing good things. As my kids are getting older and starting into high school, lots of new opportunities are opening up for them. There are sports and speech competitions and Science Olympiads and Future Farmers of America and all sorts of things. Good things. And winning in these competitions and moving on to state, or even nationals, means trips with the team across the state and even across the country, staying in hotels, meeting new people, having new experiences. All great stuff.
