Gu Ailing's family background has made me more firm in my belief in accepting the mediocrity of my children
After Gu Ailing won the Winter Olympics, this beautiful, sunny and dazzling girl entered the public's field of vision.
Gu Ailing can be said to be a child who grew up with a golden spoon, born in a kochi and golden family, and has an extremely strong cultural heritage.
Gu Ailing's grandfather and grandmother both graduated from Peking University, and her mother went to the United States for further study after graduating from Peking University, graduating from Stanford University. Dad graduated from Harvard University. Gu Ailing, who grew up in such an environment, outperformed 90% of the people. She not only has a wide range of hobbies, but also a proper academic bully. Gu Ailing, who studied at Stanford University, completed the four-year course in three years, with a full score of 1600 points, and Gu Ailing achieved an excellent score of 1580 points.
Not only is she a school bully, but she also falls in love with skiing in her spare time, and at the age of eighteen, she has won numerous awards!
This is a typical other person's child, and we ordinary people can only envy and look up, because ordinary people's children may not be able to catch up on the plane!
After watching other people's children and looking back at my own children, I told myself more firmly and accepted the mediocrity of my children!
Don't misunderstand, accepting the mediocrity of children is not to be a hand-throwing treasurer, let alone lying flat. Instead, adjust your mindset, because most people end up living like ordinary people.
Gu Ailing's success cannot be copied, and Gu Ailing's achievements are inseparable from her mother's immersive education. In order for the children to live a good life in the future, rather than working hard for life, we can learn about Gu Ailing's mother's education method:
First, praise the child's intelligence less, and praise the child's efforts more. Encourage children to think independently and boldly, open their eyes to discover the advantages of children, and do not see mistakes or shortcomings to enlarge infinitely, restless.
Second, it is better to teach by example than to teach by example. Parents are a child's first teacher. Every word and deed of parents invisibly affects the growth of children. If we want to make our children better than ourselves, then we must first change ourselves, and when our parents are strong, our children will be better. One action by a parent is far more powerful than endless nagging.
Third, ensure that your child gets enough sleep. 10 hours of sleep may already be a luxury for Chinese children. But we need to guarantee at least 8 hours of sleep. After the body gets enough rest, it can better meet the daytime study and work.
We may not have Gu Ailing's strong family background, may not have sufficient financial support, and may not have our children as talented as Gu Ailing, but we can learn their educational philosophy and make our children better.
Maybe it's the best gift we can give to our children.
