I am not a perfect child

——Jimmy

"Hello everyone, my name is "Hao Mingmei". I am now in the third grade of elementary school. This name is my parents Taken for me. They said that when I was a child, no matter whether I looked at me from the front or from the back, whether I was awake or sleeping, laughing or crying, I looked perfect. However, as I grew up, things changed... My parents have more and more demands, and the school's requirements have become more and more strict. I feel very tired, and I really want to shout: I am not a perfect child! I want to know how many people in the world feel that they are not perfect like me. So I mustered up the courage to stand on stage and express my thoughts on this matter. All children and adults who have given up on pursuing perfection are welcome to listen."

To all imperfect children

When educating their children, parents often say: If you do this again, your parents will not like you! As a result, the children gradually believed that only by doing things that satisfy their parents would they love me more and more.

Under such a growing environment, children often ignore their own emotions, become perfect children in the eyes of their parents, and have no opinions of their own!

Oranges grown in Huainan are called tangerines, and those grown in northern Huaibei are called tangerines. The leaves are similar, but the actual taste is different. So why is it so? Water and soil are different.

The same tree grows in different places, but the fruits it produces have completely different tastes. Why? That’s because we have violated the original growth environment and laws of oranges. In the process of educating children, we cannot tolerate children's mistakes. When we find signs of making mistakes, we will rush to correct them. In this way, parents save time, but children lose the opportunity to try and experience failure.

But in fact, the process of growth is the process of constantly making mistakes, constantly correcting mistakes, and mastering methods.

Only when children are willing to make mistakes will they grow up

An old teacher said: Children grow up by making mistakes. Such mistakes require children to experience them themselves, and parents cannot understand and grow for them. Small mistakes are resources for children's growth. The characteristic of children is that they "continue to make small mistakes but never make big mistakes." By making mistakes, children learn what to do is right and what to do will lead to terrible consequences, thus gaining immunity from making mistakes.

Accept small shortcomings of children

Many parents easily accept their children's strengths, but cannot accept some of their children's shortcomings. In fact, this phenomenon exists not only with children, but also with adults. The advantages are often taken for granted, while the disadvantages are infinitely magnified.

Learn to accept your child’s shortcomings! Accept your children's shortcomings and shortcomings with a peaceful mind, and give your children a relaxed and loving environment, so that your children will grow up happily!
