Sita chose to join Rama in the forest because she believed family should face hardship together. Later, when Ravana took her to Lanka, she stayed strong and refused to give up her values.
She did not have an army or weapons, but she had inner strength. She remembered Rama, protected her dignity, and did not let fear control her choices.
Sita's story helps children understand that courage is not only physical. Courage can be patience, self-respect, and staying true to what is right.
