“If you would have your son to walk honourably through the world, you must not attempt to clear the stones from his path, but teach him to walk firmly over them”

Simplified Meaning:
Parents should not try to make life too easy for their children by removing all obstacles. Instead, they should help their children learn to handle difficulties themselves. Imagine a parent who always does their child's homework. The child may get good grades, but when faced with a problem on their own, they won't know what to do. It's better if the parent guides the child on how to solve problems, so the child gains confidence and skills. In real life, this means encouraging independence and resilience. This way, the child grows up capable of dealing with challenges and becomes more successful and honorable in life.
