In the past few days, a girl and her mother have made the hot list, and she is only 18-year-old Gu Ailing, who won the third gold medal for the Chinese team at the Winter Olympics.
Gu Ailing's success was undoubtedly amazing, and then I saw in the comment section of some of her reports that her success came from money.
It is undeniable that money has played a great role in Gu Ailing's progress, but the most important thing is that her mother and grandmother have given her spiritual encouragement and support.
Speaking of which, I am reminded of another mother,—— Meyer Musk, the mother of Elon Musk, the world's richest man.
However, unlike Gu Ailing, Elon Musk did not have a good family, and his mother, Meyer, divorced her father at the age of 31 and raised three children alone, before which she experienced domestic violence for 9 years.
However, in front of the children, Meyer never complained or blamed her misfortune on the children, instead she faced all problems with a positive attitude.
She studied, worked and grew hard, never saying anything frustrating and desperate even when life was in jeopardy. When encountering problems, they will actively look for solutions. I think this is the best education for a mother – to lead by example and set an example for her children with actions.
The mother's mental state will directly or indirectly affect the child's mental state, and the mother, who is full of inner strength, will definitely have a healthy and confident child.
Teacher Wang Donghua also explained the importance of mother's education in the book "Discovering Mothers".
To educate a boy well is to educate a person well, to educate a girl well, to educate a family, three generations, that is, to educate a nation.
