TV That Promotes Perseverance

Developing character strengths and life skills is essential to kids' overall growth and success. These TV shows help kids learn the value of sticking with something no matter what challenges they face. Perseverance, determination, grit, resilience -- all are positive traits that help kids succeed in life. Watching TV shows that celebrate these elements can inspire kids to pursue their dreams, even when things get tough. The character strength of perseverance surfaces in these shows by being intrinsic to the story and being repeated several times in the actions of a lead character, and it "wins" over character flaws such as apathy.
