Children often need support finding a way to fix a mistake. You want to encourage your children to ask for help in figuring it out, rather than asking for solutions. Asking for help is a very responsible way to deal with a problem and should be encouraged. The ability to ask for help when needed is an admirable quality in people of all ages. It shows maturity, strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to be thoughtful.
