Children always lose their meals when they eat. How can they be educated?
Although it is said that parents should set an example in the process of educating their children, when children waste food, I personally think that it may not be the right way to educate as parents.

The reason for this is mainly based on the following reasons:

First of all, when their children waste food, parents take this way to educate their children. Although it can shock children's hearts to a certain extent and make them feel guilty about their food waste, parents also have some show and exaggeration to avoid it. After all, children nowadays are more sensible in most cases. Parents can explain to their children the importance of cherishing food and point out the mistakes of children's food-wasting behavior, which can also play a good educational role.

Moreover, in order to educate children well and not waste food, parents' expectations can be met not only through this thing. The purpose should be that parents should always supervise their children's daily behavior during their growth, and parents should correct them in time when their children waste food. After a long time, they will let their children form the good habit of cherishing food and will not waste food again. Personally, this kind of education effect is obviously more effective and lasting than the previous one. For children, learning to cherish food without wasting food requires a process of habit formation, and parents should be patient enough.

I don't approve of this kind of education, and I don't think it is appropriate. In fact, there are many ways to educate children to save food. For example, the following:

1. Let children know that food is hard to come by. Children who waste food often don't know how much time and manpower it takes to produce food. It takes more than 3000 hours for a grain of rice to reach the table. Soil preparation, seedling raising, transplanting, weeding, pest control, fertilization and irrigation all require a lot of manpower and material resources. When the harvest season is over, it will go through the steps of harvesting, drying, hulling, breaking rice, storage and so on, and finally it will be packaged and sent to people's dining tables. It is suggested that parents can take their children to rural areas or grain production bases on holidays, so that children can see how farmers sow, weed, fertilize and water, and let children feel the hard work of doing farm work and truly experience that "every grain is hard". In addition, we should consciously cultivate children's gratitude and let him know that children in many poor places in the world are still struggling with hunger. When we live a carefree life, we should appreciate and cherish every day.

2. Stop children from wasting food in detail. To cultivate any good habit, we should start with dolls and trifles, and saving food is no exception. It is necessary to make rules so that children have no chance to waste food. The habit of wasting is gradually formed. Usually, children don't eat all the food in the bowl. If parents turn a blind eye or just dump it, children will get used to it and slowly turn waste into a habit. Therefore, parents should make good table rules with their children in advance. First of all, the older children can let him decide how many meals to serve. Second, eat all the food in the bowl, and don't throw it away easily if it is wasted. Let children know the feeling of hunger, know the sweetness of food, feel the hard-won food, and cultivate the consciousness of saving food in silence.

Parents should set an example. Parents are children's first teachers and the best role models, so we should set an example of diligence and thrift for our children in daily life. Do what children are asked to do first, and take the lead in implementing the "CD Action" when eating at home; When taking children out to eat, parents should consume reasonably and order food moderately. If they can't finish eating, they can pack them and take them home. When you take your children to a buffet, you should explain the dining etiquette to them, let them take as much as they eat, and don't let them develop the habit of wasting casually. Life is education. Under the influence and education of parents, children will naturally form a good habit of saving food.

4. Educate children to save food through reading. Many children's books, including vivid picture books, are about saving and not wasting. Parents can take their children to read together and let them know the truth of thrift. Usually, children can be taught to read some catchy children's songs or poems about saving food, so as to cultivate their awareness and habits of saving food in a subtle way. A porridge and a meal are hard to come by. Cherish food, start from you and me!
