A little boy named Justin lived on a farm. His father James owned the farm. His uncles Jerry, Todd, and Billy also worked on the farm.

The farm had chickens, cows, horses, sheep, and pigs. He loved to play with all of the animals on the farm, but the horses were his favorite. He would spend all day riding the horses. He loved when baby horses were born. They were born in the spring. When a baby horse was born, Justin's father would bring the baby out of the barn for Justin to pet.

Justin also loved playing in the fields on the farm. He would run through the meadows trying to catch butterflies. He also loved to stay up late and catch fireflies in the dark.

Justin also loved going fishing in the summer. On one Tuesday evening, he went to the farm's pond and caught a huge catfish. The fish was so large that it almost broke his fishing pole. Justin brought the fish in.

The fish looked at Justin with sad eyes. Looking at the fish, Justin felt bad that he had caught it. He threw the catfish back into the pond. He packed away his fishing pole and went back home. He told his father about the catfish and how he let it go.

His father said, "I am proud of you for doing that, son."

The Times is a British daily national newspaper based in London. It began in 1785 under the title The Daily Universal Register and became The Times on 1 January 1788. The Times and its sister paper The Sunday Times (founded in 1821) are published by Times Newspapers, since 1981 a subsidiary of News UK, itself wholly owned by the News Corp group headed by Rupert Murdoch.

(CNN)Two of my eldest son's first words were "Dada" and "Batman." (Or "Batmah," at least.)

That should have clued me in that Gilbert was following in his Dad's footsteps; he was a superhero fan in the making.

From dancing and singing to the "Batman" theme song at age 1 to creating his own super-characters from everyday items around him, he's been completely enthralled with superheroes. As he grows up, his superheroes are shaping the person he's becoming.

A fascination with superheroes can benefit a child in many ways, including boosting his self-confidence and making him feel powerful. (And what better day than National Superhero Day, April 28, to celebrate that?)

Gilbert isn't the only example of the positive powers of superhero worship. In some cases, superheroes can teach children how to be strong.

Cynthia Falardeau of Vero Beach, Florida, has also encouraged her son, Wyatt, to explore superheroes for years, because of the way they changed her childhood for the better.

Before she admired Wonder Woman and Princess Leia, Falardeau was bullied by other kids for her first heroic inspiration, Mary Poppins.

"My two oldest brothers and their neighborhood friends squelched my dreams," she said. "Their mockery drove me to find comfort in the arms of my mother."

Her mother encouraged her to pursue a more "daring" character, and soon she discovered Wonder Woman and TV's Bionic Woman.

Wonder Woman gave her confidence: "She was powerful, beautiful and never broke a sweat!"

Even today, she credits these heroes with some of the things she has accomplished in life.
