Are there any poems or proverbs about expecting your children to grow up?

1. If you are familiar with the theory of literary selection, don’t look for colorful clothes. . ——From the Tang Dynasty: Du Fu's "Zong Wu's Birthday"

Translation: A real man should advocate outstanding ambitions and not imitate humble worldly emotions. From then on, I embarked on a smooth road, a road traveled by thousands of sages.

3. The ancients spared no effort in their knowledge, and only when they are young and old can they achieve success. What I have learned on paper is ultimately shallow, and I know that I have to do it in detail. ——"Winter Night Reading Revelation to Ziyu" Song Dynasty: Lu You

Translation: The ancients spared no effort in learning, and often did not achieve success until old age. After all, the knowledge gained from books is not perfect. If you want to deeply understand the truth, you must practice it yourself.
