I once saw a cartoon with profound meaning: in the picture, a child was holding a book in his hand, but his father kept hitting himself with an apple on the tree, and a lump appeared on his forehead. Instead of stopping it, the mother on the side took part in it and sent the apple to his father. The parents of the children thought,' If you don't believe it, you can't make your son Newton second'.
What ridiculous logic this is, it reveals a truth: in the eyes of most parents, the reason why children are not successful is because they have not received enough education. Children are often under strict supervision. In their eyes, it is the so-called' jade is uncut, abrasive'. In my opinion, it is not necessarily Newton who was hit by an apple, nor is it necessarily the apple that made Newton successful. What was Newton like before he was hit by an apple? He has wisdom that others don't have or surpass. He is a student of a famous school with a strong diploma and rich knowledge. Without these, he can't become a talent. In short, you can't succeed after reading it!
I once saw such a shocking story: the reporter received a letter from Jiangxi, and the contents in the letter were all sympathetic. A little girl is always beaten by her parents because her grades are not satisfactory. Although the little girl studies hard and works hard, she still can't get the satisfaction of her parents. The little girl begged and struggled under her parents' sticks, but who expected her parents to tell her: fight or not, let you remember! Most parents use this high-sounding excuse to strictly educate their children. The content of the letter is very short, but it tells the parents' educational concept and the painful life of their children under this education. In this way, what is the difference between the child's painful expression in this cartoon and the girl's pain in the story? What's the difference between parents who beat their children with apples and parents who beat their children with sticks? How much psychological harm these parents' educational ideas should cause to their children! Who can save these poor children?
Although it is popular in life that a dutiful son is born under a stick, we don't have to use a stick to educate our children. We all hope that our children can succeed, but we should pay attention to the way of education. Locke, a British educator, said:' Parents educate their children, not by beating and cursing, but by giving them whatever help they can at an appropriate time, so that they can ride the wind and waves and sail.' In fact, as Locke said, if a child is scolded by his parents for incompetence, it will only increase his inner burden and will not succeed. Every child deserves a good education, and parents are the best mentors for children. It is always more effective to teach children to' win without arrogance and lose with grace' when they fail than to beat and scold their children by their parents. Understand that Newton didn't smash it, and it didn't work!
Newton achieved great success because he was diligent in thinking, so parents should cultivate their children's divergent thinking to think. Children can really become talents! Let's mobilize parents together to eliminate children's pain and give them a rich and interesting learning career. Because, smashing is not successful!
