"The love of parents should be like the sun, warm but not hot, guiding but not restrained, so that children can bloom and grow freely. "
The relationship between parents and children plays a crucial role in the journey of life. Sometimes, however, parents' affection can become excessive, leading them to show excessive protection and discipline as their children grow up, and even to show uneasiness. Although this phenomenon stems from deep concern for children, it often overdraws the blessings and growth space of children in the future.
1. Showing overprotection and doting on childrenPampered without a bottom line
When parents care and pamper their children too much, they may inadvertently hinder their children's opportunities to grow independently. This kind of excessive protection will make the child become overly dependent and lack the ability and courage to solve problems independently. When faced with life's challenges and difficulties, they may seem overwhelmed and unable to make the right choices because they have never learned how to deal with life's challenges on their own.
When parents overindulge their children and allow them to be willful, they often develop a bad habit and behavior pattern. They may lack self-restraint, be unable to take responsibility for their actions, or even choose to avoid responsibility when faced with difficulties. This lack of responsibility and self-discipline can affect their growth and future development, and may even lead to some serious consequences.
In addition, overprotection and spoiling can also lead to a lack of self-confidence and independent thinking in children. When parents pay too much attention to their children's every move and constantly give affirmation and praise, their children may develop a dependency mentality, relying too much on the affirmation and approval of others to maintain their self-confidence. This lack of self-confidence can affect their performance and development in society, and they may feel powerless and disappointed in the face of challenges and competition.
2. Showing excessive desire for restraint towards children, revealing uneasiness everywhere
In a family, if parents are too strict with their children's behavior and demand too much, the children may feel unable to breathe and stressed. This pressure does not only come from parental expectations, but can also stem from worries and fears about parental expectations. Children will unconsciously feel the anxiety and uneasiness of their parents, which in turn will affect their own mental health and development.
When parents are accustomed to making all the decisions and arrangements for their children, children may gradually lose the ability to think and solve problems on their own. They may become dependent, lack self-confidence, and even feel helpless and lost in the face of challenges. This lack of independence can affect their future growth and development, and even hinder them from achieving their potential and goals.
In addition, excessive desire for discipline may also affect the relationship between parents and children. When parents interfere too much in their children's lives and choices, it may cause their children to feel disgusted and resistant to their parents. They may feel that they are not respected and understood, which can lead to contradictions and estrangements. In the long run, this tension in the relationship may lead to a deterioration of the family atmosphere and even affect the harmony and happiness of the whole family.
Emotional Message:
The relationship between parents and children needs to be based on mutual respect, understanding and support. Excessive protection and discipline may give children a sense of security in the short term, but in the long run, it may hinder their growth and self-development. Therefore, parents need to give their children appropriate autonomy while caring for them, so that they can learn to think independently, solve problems, and grow up in the midst of setbacks and difficulties.
Only in this way can the relationship between parents and children be more healthy and balanced, laying a solid foundation for their common growth and well-being. In our later years, we may be able to truly understand that our parents' behaviors and attitudes can overdraw our blessings as children.
