Imagine giving someone a chess board where there are no negative consequences. Where both players win and no one loses any pieces ever. Would that game serve a purpose?

Which has a better outcome, a mom/dad that gives their child everything and protects them from all exposure to the world, or parents that introduce their children to difficult/frustrating learning situations? As C.S. Lewis put it, what you want is a potential higher being to be a grandparent not a parent.
