Click on the blue text above to follow us. In “This Thought: Life · Growth”, it says: Don’t replace children to experience life, let them experience it themselves.
Yes, a child’s life is their own life. His path in life can only be taken by himself. The more adults replace them, the later children start, and the less they experience and experience themselves.
Wind, snow, rain, frost, sweet and sour, bitter and spicy, only children who have experienced and experienced it themselves are their true lives.
Education is about allowing children to experience it on their own as much as possible if conditions permit.
Children who have experienced it will awaken themselves. A child has been arranged by their parents in an orderly manner from childhood to adulthood, never experiencing failure or solving problems on their own.
Such children, even with rich knowledge and advanced skills, are inevitably fragile and lack the courage to face challenges.
On the contrary, those children who have experienced it have learned perseverance through repeated attempts and failures, and gained confidence through repeated successes and joys.
The mirror neurons in their brains come into play, observing their actions and styles, gradually understanding what is right, what is wrong, and what still needs to be improved.
This self awakening is the most important step on a child’s growth path. Children with three experiences will demand themselves.
Experienced children are often no longer satisfied with their current situation, setting goals for themselves and pursuing progress.
For example, they may tell themselves, “I want to get at least second place in this competition. ” or “I want to improve by 5 points compared to last time in this exam.
” This self demanding motivation is not imposed on them by the outside world, but originates from deep within.
It is this driving force that drives them to constantly move forward and surpass themselves. Children with experience can handle things on their own.
Through the experience, children learn how to face difficulties and solve problems. They are no longer flowers in the greenhouse, unable to withstand the wind and rain.
When faced with problems, they will calmly think and seek solutions. If they really can’t come up with a solution, they will bravely seek help from others and learn teamwork.
This ability to solve problems is the most precious thing for children on their future life path. Children with five experiences will be brave enough to take on responsibilities.
Through experience, children learn responsibility and accountability. They understand that regardless of whether something is done well or poorly, they need to bear the consequences themselves.
This spirit of courage and responsibility enables children not to choose to evade or shirk responsibility when facing difficulties and challenges, but to bravely stand up, embrace challenges, and solve problems.
This kind of character is an important cornerstone for children to become a foothold in society in the future.
Only children with experience can enjoy the joy of experience. Children with experience often know how to enjoy the joy of life better.
They like to personally experience and feel the beauty of the world. Whether it’s outdoor exploration or artistic creation, every firsthand experience can bring them a deep sense of joy.
This kind of happiness cannot be replaced by any material wealth. It nourishes children’s hearts, making them love life more and cherish every moment.
Let children experience it themselves, adults need to judge safety and completion ability. However, as parents or educators, it is necessary to assess the safety and completion ability of children based on their actual situation, and provide them with necessary support and guidance.
We should encourage children to bravely try things they can experience; If something exceeds the scope of one’s ability or poses a safety hazard, one should patiently explain and guide the child to make the right choice.
Finding a balance between safety and education is our responsibility and obligation as parents. Finally, I would like to quote a passage I have written before: No matter what the outcome of an experience is, it is always an experience and a growth.
Children may encounter various problems and challenges during their experiences, which may bring joy of success or pain of failure.
But regardless of the outcome, these are their valuable spiritual and emotional assets. Success can make them more confident, while failure can make them stronger.
Parents should view their children’s growth process with a peaceful mindset, not overly pursue perfection, and not overly worry about their children’s failures.
Believe that children have enough ability to cope with various situations in life, and give them enough space to explore and try.
Proper letting go and allowing children to experience the wind and rain is the key to truly growing up into adults.
END’s previous recommended education is to awaken children’s inner strength for self-improvement. Education is to love unconditionally first, and then guide them well.
Education is to think like a farmer and lock their stubbornness in a cage of rules. Education is to teach children different perspectives on half a cup of water.
