Forbidden fruit effect: the more things are forbidden, the more people want to get them.

In ancient Greek mythology, a girl named Pandora got a mysterious little box from Zeus, the god of gods. Zeus strictly forbade her to open it, which aroused the girl's curiosity and adventurous spirit, so that she finally opened it, and the disaster flew out and filled the world. Pandora's teenage psychology is in response to a Russian proverb: "Forbidden fruit is especially sweet", which is the so-called "forbidden fruit effect".

The more things are forbidden, the more people will be interested and concerned, and people will be full of the desire to spy and try, and try their best to get or try through various channels. For example, when I was a child, my parents refused to go to Internet cafes. As a result, more children steal forbidden fruits to satisfy their curiosity. For another example, when I was a child, my parents banned smoking, and more children secretly tasted "forbidden fruit".

The forbidden fruit effect tells us that the best way to educate children is not to ban, but to guide and listen. For example, if you want your children to read books instead of watching TV, the best way is not to prohibit them from watching TV, but for parents to lead by example and guide their children with the atmosphere of reading. Always remember that banning bad things may stimulate the other person's interest and have a counterproductive effect.
