As an ordinary parent, keep your own saplings
In the past few days, as the Beijing Winter Olympic Games are in full swing, the mixed-race beauty Gu Ai Ling is on fire.
She is one of the youngest freestyle ski gold medalists in the history of the Winter Olympics; the first Chinese women's snow sports champion.
The 18-year-old Gu Ailing has a high appearance, good figure and sportsman. On the SAT test with a score of 1600 points, she scored 1580 points for admission to Stanford University, a world-famous university.
In addition to skiing, she also enjoys cross-country running, football, rock climbing, etc.
Since the age of 13, in just 3 years, Gu Ailing has won more than 50 gold medals.
Some people describe Gu Ailing's life as like opening a plug-in, smooth sailing, "easy" all the way.
Behind this extraordinary girl is a Haiding mother from someone else's house.
Gu Ailing's father is an American, graduated from Harvard University, his mother is a Chinese, undergraduate at Peking University, and later graduate school at Stanford University, and even his grandfather is a high-achieving student who graduated from Stanford University.
Since the age of 3, Gu Ailing has been skiing with her mother, at the age of 9 she began to win the championship of the junior group of the National Ski Competition, and at the age of 13, in order to get closer to the goal, she began to participate in the adult group.
As a former ski instructor at Peking University, she knows that skiing is a high-risk sport, and she never asked Gu Ailing to become a professional skier.
Gu Ailing's skiing career was enlightened by her mother, but her mother did not intend to let her focus on skiing, more contact with different sports, not only can broaden Gu Ailing's horizons, but also let her better understand the love in her heart.
Gu Ailing's mother will not pin her expectations on her children, cultivate in many ways, let go appropriately, and take care of rest while learning.
Gu's mother said that she usually calculates the time to arrange Gu Ailing's life and study, but there is one thing that must be done, that is, to sleep enough for 10 hours.
This gives Gu Ailing better energy to focus on doing things.
Gu Ailing's success is not accidental, behind her is the mother's wisdom education and Gu Ailing's hard work.
As ordinary parents, we do not need to blindly worship and compare, and Gu Ailing's success cannot be copied and imitated.
We can learn from the methods of other people's mothers, teach according to their aptitudes, and promote the growth of seedlings, each child is an angel, has its own highlights, we just need to wait to discover their beauty.
