Hello everyone, I'm Maco.
Revisiting Disney's animated film "The Lion King", what makes Marco feel most deeply is the part about "responsibility" in the film, just like Mufasa's teaching of Simba, instilling a sense of responsibility into children, so that children know how to be responsible for themselves and their families.
It is your responsibility to protect your child
There is also a responsibility to teach children to protect themselves
Parents are the closest people to their children in the world, they have a responsibility to protect their children, but also have a responsibility to teach their children to learn to protect themselves.
The little lion Simba was in distress at the elephant cemetery for the first time, and Papa Mufasa arrived in time to save him, and the second time he encountered a running herd of cattle in the valley, Dad still saved him, and the last time he saved him.
As long as Simba encounters danger, papa Mufasa will fight to the death to save him and protect him, because he is papa, which is his responsibility.
Mufasa once said to Simba:
"I am only brave when necessary, and bravery is not blindly rushing forward, not challenging the strong to prove myself without self-control, but standing up desperately when protecting your loved ones and those who love you, and appearing when they need you most." 」
I have seen reports on the Internet that a 6.0-magnitude earthquake occurred in Luxian County, Sichuan, when the earthquake occurred, the mother protected the 4-month-old baby, and the child's father also blocked the baby with his body and hugged his wife into his arms, this scene was monitored and filmed.
In Qijing Village, Huangshi Town, Licheng District, Xu Yucai's home suddenly caught fire, and the family of five was trapped in the sea of fire. In the process of villagers' rescue, Xu Yucai and his wife insisted on saving 3 children first. When a family of 5 was rescued by the villagers, the children were only slightly burned, and the 2 adults were seriously burned.
Parents always use their own practical actions to tell their children what responsibility and true bravery are.
However, as parents, we not only want their physical health, but also protect their mental health, only if they are physically and mentally healthy, they can truly grow up healthily.
At the same time, we must also teach children to protect themselves, because we can't stay around our children all the time, and now there are many factors that are unsafe in the social environment, such as often in the news, seeing children being bullied, violated, and even tragic endings.
Therefore, how to let children have the ability to protect themselves, in times of danger, know how to protect themselves, is also the responsibility that parents must teach their children.
There is such a scene in the movie "Galaxy Tuition Class", Ma Fei is trapped by the ferocious flood, and his father is not by his side, in the panic, Ma Fei remembered the words that his father often told him, "Never stop thinking." ”
In the end, Ma Fei made a simple raft out of door panels and sheets and saved himself.
How to make a raft is not any textbook knowledge, but it is indeed something that a teenager may think of, which is also the purpose of Dad to make Ma Fei not stop thinking.
The responsibility of being a role model for children, teaching by example
In The Lion King, Simba feels that he can do whatever he wants by becoming a king, but his father, Mufasa, tells him that a king can't do whatever he wants.
Mufasa told Simba:
"Simba, all life in the world survives in a delicate balance. As a king, you have to know not only that balance, but also respect all creatures, including crawling ants and jumping antelopes. ”
The child's world view and right and wrong view are very weak, so many of their ideas and behaviors are not standardized, at this time, parents need to assume the responsibility of their children's role models, teach by example, and guide their children to the right path.
In daily life, many parents themselves do not leave their mobile phones, play games and chase dramas, but blame their children for not learning well and loving to play games, such education will not be convinced, but also irresponsible.
I've heard the saying, "What you want your child to become, you have to be like that first." ”
The parents of Wu Yishu, the overall champion of the "Chinese Poetry Conference", set a good example for her.
Wu Yishu was particularly playful when she was a child, and her grades were not very good.
Her parents led by example, the chess and card room did not go, the mobile phone did not play, began to read the Twenty-Four History and the Classic of Mountains and Seas, took Xiao Yishu to role-play the famous plot, accompanied her to play poetry solitaire, and whoever lost would do housework.
Until high school, Wu Yishu never stayed away from poetry, so for several years, the naughty Wu Yishu became reasonable, and finally the college entrance examination was admitted to Tsinghua University with a total score of 613 points (Shanghai college entrance examination score of 660 points).
The roots of education are in the family, and parents are a flag for children. Your every move affects your child all the time.
Parents' worldview and values will affect their children through small things, so it is better to say that words are not as good as teaching by example, and parents are the best teachers for children.
Practice has proved that only when parents study well, children can improve every day!
Therefore, as a parent, you must also have the responsibility of example, in life, reflect more on your own behavior, if you do not want your children to be like you, you should actively correct it, if you want your children to like to read, then you should first read books.
Find ways to accompany your child to grow up
In The Lion King, Mufasa and Simba have a very good parent-child relationship.
When Mufasa rescued Simba from the elephant cemetery for the first time, he had an in-depth conversation with Simba and had a time alone with father and son, a companionship that Simba will never forget.
In real life, many parents will have such confusion: "Letting go of work can't afford to support you, picking up work can't accompany you", so accompanying children has become a luxury.
In fact, many parents do not know that companionship does not necessarily mean simply spending time with their children.
When we say "companionship", it is not time to accompany, but to maintain a parent-child relationship.
Maintaining a parent-child relationship only requires parents and children to maintain a state of intimate communication, rather than needing to be with their children at all times.
If parents are willing to go into the heart of their children, you will find that they do not want much, maybe just a hug, a word of comfort, a warm look, can warm the child's heart.
I saw such a news report on the Internet before, Haoyu, an 11-year-old boy in Chengdu, communicated with his father for four years by writing a note.
"Dad, I can't remember how long it's been since you took me to the movies the last time..."
"Dad, can you come home early tomorrow and teach me math problems..."
"Dad, the teacher praised me for doing the right number problem, don't forget to look at it..."
Haoyu told his father through a note of joy and sorrow, and the first thing his father did when he returned home late at night was to look at the child's message and then reply to the child.
Thin paper, but thick father-son love. Even if the time that his parents spend with him is not much, the child can really feel the father's intentions and love.
Between the lines of the child,away from any complaints, more of an understanding and heartache for the father.
True companionship is not a consideration in the time dimension; it is necessary to use love to warm the relationship between parents and children, let the child see, let the child understand: behind him, the parents have been growing up with him.
Dong Qing said in "Readers":
"Companionship is also a force, in this world, no one is an island, losing companionship, but also losing the meaning of survival."
The parenting style of parents affects the future of children; excellent parents insist on companionship and more investment, and children will become excellent and will be expected tomorrow.
