What are the differences between the two generations in raising children? Is it okay to let the older generation take care of the children?

After the child is born, who will take care of it is a very urgent and realistic question. Many mothers will become full-time wives to take care of the family and children. However, some mothers are very career-oriented, so the task of taking care of their children falls on the older generation. There may be many people who don’t know the difference between parents taking care of their children themselves and the older generation taking care of their children. Over time, the difference will become apparent.

I believe you have seen the jokes on the Internet. A child’s mother is a cute little prince or princess, but when it comes to the mother-in-law, the grandma becomes a “young runtu”. Although these are jokes, they actually exist in real life. Such jokes also very well reflect the differences between the two generations in raising children.

Then why is there such a big difference? What is the main impact? Lele believes that this is mainly due to the influence of the environment. The environment will first affect children's behavioral habits. In shopping malls and restaurants, you may find some children chirping while eating. Some children eat slowly and quietly. Why do they behave differently? This is the impact of the environment. Think about it, children and people of the older generation often eat together, and most of the older generation still talk while eating. Children have seen such bad behaviors slowly over time. Parents who take care of their children in person can greatly reduce the probability of such behavior, because the quality of modern parents is relatively high.

In addition, if the older generation helps take care of the children, the young parents can work outside without worrying about the children at home. This virtually reduces the pressure on the younger generation, which is also the main reason why many young parents entrust their children to take care of them.

More importantly, although the elderly helping to take care of their children can reduce the pressure on young people, the premise is that the elderly still have sufficient energy and the ability to take care of themselves.

Lele feels that taking care of children is indeed not an easy task. But as parents, we still have to shoulder this responsibility. This is a responsible parent. Sometimes some people think that the older generation has many advantages in taking care of children, so it is natural for them to let the elderly help take care of their children while they ignore them. This approach is very wrong and is very detrimental to the growth and development of the children. influence. As a last resort. The elderly can help take care of their children, but parents should also communicate more with their children and cultivate relationships. Who is taking care of your children?
