I remember my mother's mantra when I was a child: You eat, I don't like to eat.
At that time, I didn't understand things, and I always thought that my mother really didn't like to eat, so I naturally sent all the good things into my mouth. It wasn't until that time that I discovered my mother's secret.
It was a weekend, and Dad came back from outside and bought us a box of strawberries that we all loved, and each of the three of us sisters took a strawberry and brought it to Mom's mouth: "Mom, you try it first." ”
Mom shook her head as usual and said, "Mom doesn't like strawberries, so go ahead and eat them." "We laughed and ran away, and none of our mothers, who loved to eat, didn't like to eat.
The younger brother was the youngest, accidentally dropped a half-eaten strawberry on the ground, he was reluctant to eat the half of the strawberry, wanted to pick it up and continue to eat, his mother saw it and shouted at his brother: "Dirty can not eat." ”
But my mother came over and picked up the half strawberry, took it to the well, washed it, and put it in her mouth.
Since then, I have understood: mothers do not love to eat, but reluctant to eat, post-60s parents, which is willing to grab food with their children? They all say they don't like to eat.
At that time, we called this maternal love, selfless maternal love.
But now it's different. Just like this young mother, she nibbled on a mango core and was sprayed by netizens to the skin.
Here's the thing:
A young mother posted a picture on a social networking site of three sliced mangoes, the flesh of which was on a plate and the cores on a cutting board.
The caption is: Since having two children, I have eaten three mango cores, and the mango meat is all children', and I only deserve to eat mango cores!
Perhaps, this mother just casually sent it, and did not mean to be sympathetic.
After all, such a scene is normal for parents after the 80s, after all, the mango core is not easy to nibble, the child is not clean, not to mention, it is easy to get full of it.
However, netizens are not calm, have complained about this mother, they said: "I will not be so self-moved, want to eat their own food, just buy more on the line." ”
Some netizens also said: "It is not that you can't afford it, you have to do it to show your mother's selflessness." ”
Some netizens said: "If you really can't afford to eat, everyone don't eat, if you want to eat, eat together." ”
More netizens said: "Mothers are not inferior to children, why should they only eat mango cores?" ”
The author was stunned to see it, this mother did not do wrong, why are so many netizens afraid of her? Is it that the times are moving too fast and we can't keep up?
Seeing the messages of the following netizens, I finally found my confidence, and it turned out that there were netizens like me.
They said: I also only nibble on the core, and I don't think there is any problem. The meat on the core is just difficult to nibble, and it is not unpalatable, which is not the same as eating a fish skin chicken neck.
Some netizens also said: I also eat the core myself, and the meat is given to the children. Living conditions are fine, just subconsciously do it. But all the fruits that children like, we adults do not eat, which is not criticized or praised.
The author also thinks that this is just a way of life, not like our parents' generation, it is really unbearable to eat, so parents are reluctant to eat.
The current living conditions can be eaten if you want to eat, people just think that the meat on the core is still a lot, throw away the strange pity, keep their own nibbles, there is no need to go on the line.
Selfless parents do not want to touch anyone, but they know that life is not easy and are not willing to waste the fruits of their labor.
