The parents spend too much time on determining future things of children. children can make choices by their own.
Frankly, as a parent, I disagree with the pointthat children can make choice by their own. Who can make the choice for thechildren, it is depend on different situations.
Firstly, everyone knows almost all childrenhave little self-control ability, so they can not always focus on the thingthey should do, such as learning knowledge and exercise body. If fact theyprefer paling games, watching TV, and browsing internet for a very long time.These things not only damage their eye sight, but also teach them lessknowledge, and even badly these will lazy their brain and body. When I wasyoung, I got myopic eye because of watching too much TV every day, and I findmy son also like watching TV, so I can not let the myopic eye happen to my son.These bad habit waste their time to do better thing, so what they need to doand when they should do can not be chosen only by their own.
Secondly, as an adult, wehave not only successful experience about life and work, but also valuablelesson to share with them. For example, when I was young, learning aninstrument as an amateur is impossible thing in our countryside. So I encouragemy son to learn violin, and in fact he is really good at this. However, for soyoung child, he does not like to practice violin every day. What I do every dayis to accompany with him to exercise violin, encourage him to persist, and avoidhim giving up. In this learning process, parents choose the better thing forthe children’s future.
Thirdly, preparing enoughinstead of excessive time, money and energy for the children’s future is the responsibilityof every parent. By balancing work and life time, each parent can offer enough timeto carefully determining future things of children. These things includelong-term plans and short-term projects. For instance, a health body is necessaryfor the future success, and this is useful long-term plan. How to approach thisgoal? We need to take many short-term projects. For example, my son take thesoccer course when the beginning of each school year, then participate the baseball exercise in the middle of that school year, and finally in the end of theschool year he practice basketball inhis team. All the sports happen on the weekend days and keep only one hour. Fromthese exercise, I hope he can familiar with some major sports, maybe not asprofessional as an athlete, and build a healthy and strong body for the wonderfulfuture.
From my point, parentsshould spend much time in determining children’s future. Parents use this timeto help and assist their children to get some achievement in future. It is notthe success of the children, but also the parents. I also want to claim that parentscould not determine the future only by themselves, because children’s futuredepends on a lot of aspects. As a parent, we should show them good way andprevent them from going to bad way. |
