To the Editor:Re “A Promise to Grads Who Show ‘No Promise,’” by Megan K. Stack (Opinion guest essay, June 9):Ms. Stack provides a dose of wisdom and perspective for parents, educators and teens about resilience and hope. A teenager I worked with years ago who struggled in high school with academic and other issues is now a successful adult. He recently got back in touch and told me that the biggest fiction from his childhood was how everyone back then said that if he didn’t excel in high school, he’d never amount to anything. Our youths are works in progress with different trajectories, which adults can tilt in either direction. Kids are sensitive to the implicit messages they get from their parents about failure and what constitutes success.
