Chapter 131 Be More Forgiving To Children (1/2)(1/2)
After lunch, I arranged my two daughters to take a nap in the house.
Lu Chen and Li Jingjing sat under the persimmon tree in the small courtyard.
Li Jingjing was not in a very high mood and was still reflecting on what happened in the car.
I calmed down and recalled that passage and felt that I was indeed a bit too much at that time.
My daughter is just in elementary school now, but she, a mother, is so sensitive. She even says that she should not let her children play like she used to, and focus more on learning.
Thinking of this, thinking of the way I was talking in the car.
Li Jingjing really felt very guilty.
Unexpectedly, she also has the same side as most mothers.
Originally, Li Jingjing was very disgusted with such parents.
As a result, she became the person she once hated.
When Lu Chen saw Li Jingjing sitting on a small chair under the persimmon tree, he felt very depressed. He obviously had not yet come out of the previous emotions, and he seemed very disappointed.
He stretched out his hand and gently pulled Li Jingjing's hand up.
"Don't be nervous, actually your behavior in the car is normal."
When Li Jingjing heard Lu Chen's words, she couldn't help but feel emotionally.
He whispered sadly, "But, but I don't want that."
Lu Chen reached out to hold Li Jingjing's shoulder to cry.
"I know, I understand you don't want that, you just hope your child can be better."
"Well, I just want them not to fall behind others."
"I know, you hope that they are excellent, liked by teachers, envy by classmates, and will not fall behind others in any way. I understand."
When Li Jingjing heard this, she couldn't help but feel even more emotional.
"But I, but I messed up the matter."
Lu Chen gently embraced Li Jingjing into his arms.
"No, you didn't mess it up. Look, didn't your daughter forgive you?"
Li Jingjing couldn't help sobbing in Lu Chen's arms.
"But, but I'm so scared that I can't control my emotions in the future."
Lu Chen continued to comfort himself in a low voice: "Then don't restrain yourself. You don't have to restrain your emotions. You can say your thoughts, but in the future, don't say so loudly."
Li Jingjing listened quietly, still feeling a little panicked.
Lu Chen continued: "In the future, if you have any ideas, we should try not to get angry, not to speak loudly, and speak out peacefully.
The children have grown up and they have started to go to school, and they have many of their own ideas.
As for us, we cannot force them to do what we are going to do, we can only try our best to guide them.
Then everyone has any opinions, let’s discuss them together, okay?”
After hearing what Lu Chen said, Li Jingjing nodded in Lu Chen's arms.
"Okay, then you have to look at me and remind me from now on."
"Okay, I'll remind you."
Lu Chen didn't think there was anything wrong with Li Jingjing's performance.
Normal Chinese parents always do this.
When the child starts to go to school, he will gradually focus on his grades.
This is not what parents want to do, but the overall society brings this result.
When other parents around you are staring at the score.
I will keep talking about my score.
Naturally, you will be affected too.
Maybe at the beginning every parent would think of not caring about those things.
As long as the child is happy, he can learn something.
But when you look at other people's children every day, you are always so outstanding.
And in terms of scores, my own children are always not as good as others.
It will gradually arouse the inferiority in parents' hearts.
Is your own children inferior to others?
Is it because my child has not worked hard?
Wait until this series of doubts emerged.
Not many parents can truly be calm and unconsciously focus on their children's scores.
I wonder, how to prove that my child has learned it?
That must be only scores?
If you really know everything, why would you not do well in the exam?
If you fail the exam, it means you have not learned it.
Why didn't you learn it?
That must be because the class is not good.
I must have put my mind elsewhere.
So my parents began to investigate over and over again.
I always want to find some reasons why children's scores are inferior to others based on some of their children's daily interests and hobbies and things that seem to have nothing to do with learning.
In the end, we can only deprive children of their interests and hobbies, and deprive children of extracurricular activities and reading step by step.
Until the child is completely deprived of all the right to play.
But can you blame your parents?
Actually, it can't.
Because it's the first time we've been parents.
So who can guarantee not to make mistakes?
Moreover, no matter what kind of education it is, who can guarantee that it is correct?
No parent does not want their children to become successful.
When no one knows how to do it.
Then you can only choose the most reliable way to educate.
Even if this kind of security is only theoretical.
Lu Chen gently patted Li Jingjing in his arms and whispered: "We don't know what kind of education is correct, so I can't guarantee that I will be as enlightened as I am now, so I don't have to blame myself too much, let alone ask my children too much."
Li Jingjing nodded again and responded.
"Yeah, I get it."
Lu Chen hugged Li Jingjing and whispered: "Let's work together."
In the afternoon, Li Jingjing simply did not let Lu Chen drive out.
The family of four held hands and walked together to send their daughters to school.
While walking on the road, Li Jingjing apologized to her daughter very seriously.
And won the forgiveness of their daughters.
Then, the mother and daughter walked along the way, occasionally making fun together for a while, and walked to school happily.
Li Jingjing did not ask Lu Chen to send her, but she came to send Lu Chen and her daughters to the school.
"Goodbye, be happy at school."
Without "study hard",
There is no "listening to the teacher".
There is no such familiar words for educating children.
But it’s a very simple sentence, be happy in school.
This also shows some changes in Li Jingjing.
Children are still in the first grade, just as Lu Chen said, and they cannot be over-required, and they still have to guide them slowly.
The two girls were naturally very happy.
