Hoping for a son to become a dragon and a daughter to become a phoenix is an expectation of every parent for their children. When many children are young, even when they are just starting elementary school, parents are always worried about whether their children will be able to keep up with the progress of other children in school. When the child's test score is not satisfactory, worry about whether the child's learning ability is inferior to others, and worry about the child's future. Actually, such a worry is really unnecessary. As long as their children are physically mentally healthy, positive, and full of enthusiasm and curiosity about the world. Then trust your children, they are more capable of learning than you can imagine.
When a person's learning ability is the strongest, it is actually childhood. Even a newborn baby has a very strong learning ability. Otherwise, a baby who has just come into this world will neither speak nor understand the words of his parents. Without anyone to teach, it is possible to learn such a complex human language simply by not listening to the people around you. How can such a learning ability be said not to be strong? In fact, everyone has their own area of expertise. Messi could not become a basketball superstar, short in stature, but became a legend in the football world. If you think your child is mediocre, it may actually be that you have not found the potential of the child's own suitability.
To fully assess a person's potential, the most important thing is to find what areas your child is good at. If a child is not outstanding in academic performance, perhaps he is more suitable for art. If the child has no interest in learning the boring life, perhaps he is more suitable for developing sports. Everyone has something they're good at. If you feel that your child is inferior to others, as a parent, you should first reflect on your own problems. Is it because you don't know your children enough to find the areas that your children are good at to make your children seem so mediocre?
Everyone is an ordinary person. As a parent who has lived for decades, you should know this truth better than your child. There are very few geniuses in the world, and it is unrealistic to expect your children to become unique geniuses. When your own children are mediocre, don't blame them. Your own life is so mediocre, why can't you accept the fact that your children are mediocre? Therefore, it is better to complain about the world, but it is better to actively face life and teach by example. When parents are more active in the face of life, children will become more hard-working and more motivated.
As a parent, if you want your children to become better. The first thing we have to do is to get to know our children. Interest is always the best teacher for children, as parents should explore children's interests and hobbies. Find things your child really enjoys doing. Everyone is mediocre, and the so-called genius is just putting more energy into his favorite field. If you can tap into what your children love, with your children's learning ability, why can't you become an excellent talent?
People are born ordinary, and the truly extraordinary people are those who accept their ordinary destiny and do every ordinary thing in life well. Give children more encouragement and applause, a positive atmosphere, can increase children's self-confidence, and naturally they will become more enthusiastic about learning.
