AS A PARENT it is reasonable to want to do everything you can to make your kids happy. However giving them all the things they want, too much stuff and too many experiences, at too early an age can lead to anything but happiness. The best gift we can give our kids is to teach them to be resilient. Resilience is defined as the ability to withstand or recover quickly from difficult conditions. On the kids' page on the website embracethefuture.org.au it is says 'being resilient means being able to bounce back into shape like a rubber ball after something goes wrong or being able to keep going when life is tough. Being resilient means always being tougher than your life is!' This website has a Resiliency Resource Centre with information for parents, teachers and children and is well worth a look.

%BWJE4PMBOP

This fantastic Tweed River is be- ing very kind to me as I’ve been catching half of my target fish. Normally I’m a bit of an oppor- tunistic fisho and last weekend I had two fish in mind. Number one jacks. As Sum- mer seemed to arrive over night I headed down to the wall next to Boyd’s Family Park where local legend has it there’s a few cars on the bottom. I picked them up on my sounder (I could find three) but no fish. I’ll keep trying this spot as it has a lot of potential where all that $BCBSJUB#FBDI8PNFOT$MVC4FMFDUFE5SJQMFT'JOBMXJOOFST(MFOZT$BSUXSJHIU +PBO(SJóUIT run out from Cobaki converges BOE-J[B.PSSJTXIPXPOPWFS:WPOOF)BXLFZ 3PCZO$SFFEPOBOE(XFO$PVTUMFZ into a narrow deep hole.
