On the long journey of parenting, parents often encounter a variety of unpredictable challenges. One of the most worrying challenges for them is undoubtedly the psychological growth of children. In this field, Huang Bo presents us with a profound and real picture in the latest movie "Learning Dad".
Lei Mi in the movie, a lively and cute elementary school boy, was supposed to enjoy his childhood at a carefree age. However, due to the high expectations and excessive urging of his parents, he was enveloped by heavy academic pressure, which eventually led to the collapse of his psychological defense. This story makes us think deeply: in the process of educating our children, do we overly pursue grades and ignore their inner world?
At the starting line of life, parents have signed up for various interest classes for their children, and skills such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, dance, and ** fill the children's spare time. However, in this fierce competition, we can't help but ask: where is the child's real interest? Has a specialty become a must-have skill for everyone?
As a joke circulated on the Internet, when the school was going to hold a New Year's party, and the teacher asked if there were any students in the class who could play musical instruments, 46 out of 48 students said they could play the piano, and the other 2 said they could play the cello. This is undoubtedly a kind of irony of the proliferation of specialties. In this environment, children's uniqueness is submerged in a uniform set of skills. However, some wise parents understand that every child is unique. They respect their child's personality and interests and do not impose their own expectations on them. Musk's mother, Mayer Musk, is a prime example. When Musk became interested in the computer field, she bought a computer for her child and supported him in researching the Internet, which eventually became the "Iron Man" of the real world. Similarly, her second son, Kimball, developed a keen interest in food, and Meyer arranged for him to take charge of the family's food. Eventually, Kimball chose the restaurant industry and now owns several chain restaurants. The third daughter, Tosca, has loved acting since she was a child, and Meyer accompanies her daughter to the movies every week. Today, Tosca runs an entertainment company, not only as a director but also as a screenwriter. A sentence in "Dad" says very well: "The world is big, the world is vast, there are rivers, rivers, lakes, and seas in the world. "On the road of children's growth, there is indeed more than just one way to go. As parents, in the process of parenting, we should not only pay attention to their children's academic performance and material needs, but also pay attention to their psychological needs. Respect your child's personality and give them enough freedom and space to explore the world. Respect your child's uniqueness and encourage them to pursue their interests and develop self-confidence and resilience by taking their personality and interests as a starting point. Only in this way can children go wider and wider on the road of growth. Huang Bo
