When in reality, kids (really people of all ages) grow when challenged. It doesn't have to be through trauma.
Well I can tell from my own experience that's not the case; the times i was unnecessarily "challenged" are the worst times in my life that have inflicted the gravest of emotional damages that i still have to deal with. i prefer peace over challenges, but unfortunately my parents didn't seem to care about what i want.
