On a quiet night, a mother sits on a couch with a determined gaze ahead. Her child, Xiaojie, was sitting on the floor, playing intently with his mobile phone. The mother's heart was full of contradictions and struggles, and she knew that she had to make a decision.
"Xiaojie, can you put down your phone and listen to your mother?" Mother asked softly.
Xiaojie raised his head, and his eyes revealed a trace of dissatisfaction: "Mom, what are you going to say?" ”
The mother took a deep breath and said slowly: "Child, why don't I let you play with your mobile phone, because I am worried that it will affect your growth. ”
Xiaojie said dissatisfiedly: "Mom, I just want to relax, why are you always so strict?" ”
The mother gently touched Xiaojie's head and said earnestly, "Xiaojie, do you know? Although mobile phones can bring us a lot of fun, over-indulging in them can make our lives out of control. ”
Xiaojie looked at his mother suspiciously: "Out of control? Mom, I don't understand what you mean. ”
The mother patiently explained: "Child, imagine that if we spend all our time playing with our phones, then we will ignore the people and things around us and miss out on a lot of good times. ”
Xiaojie was silent for a moment, and then said, "But Mom, I'm just playing with my phone in my spare time, which won't affect my studies." ”
Mother smiled and said, "Xiaojie, of course Mom believes that you will arrange your time reasonably. However, the world inside the phone is so exciting that it is easy for us to become addicted to it and unable to extricate ourselves. ”
Xiaojie lowered his head and whispered, "Mom, I promise that I won't be addicted to my phone, I just want to relax in my spare time." ”
Mother looked at Xiaojie, and a warm current surged in her heart. She knows that Xiaojie is a sensible child, but she also understands that the temptation of mobile phones is too great for Xiaojie. The mother decided that she had to find a way to help Jay use his phone properly.
"Xiaojie, mom has a suggestion for you. Together, we can develop a reasonable mobile phone usage plan that can allow you to relax in your spare time without affecting your studies and life. Mother said softly.
Xiaojie raised his head, his eyes flashing with joy: "Really? Mom, I'm willing to use my phone as planned. ”
Mother smiled and nodded, "Okay, Xiaojie." Let's make this plan together, and hopefully you will become a self-disciplined child. ”
From that day on, his mother and Xiaojie worked together to make a plan for using their mobile phones. They agreed to use their phones only at a fixed time each day, and that they could not use them for more than an hour at a time. In order to let Xiaojie better comply with the plan, his mother also specially prepared a mobile phone timer for Xiaojie.
Every time the local timer rings, Xiaojie will take the initiative to put down his mobile phone and devote himself to other activities. He began to learn to manage his time wisely and no longer be addicted to the world of mobile phones.
The mother watched Xiaojie's changes, and her heart was full of relief. She knew that she had made the right decision. She believes that as long as she guides and educates with her heart, Xiaojie will definitely be able to become a self-disciplined and responsible child.
"Kid, why don't I let you play with your phone? Because I want you to have a better life, not a life controlled by your phone. Mother said silently in her heart.
