Today is Mother's Day.
First of all, Happy Holidays to all moms, including myself.
Every year on Mother's Day, I am responsible for preparing gifts, but I didn't expect to receive gifts this year:
(The handkerchief my son drew for me in kindergarten)
Secondly, the big festival didn't want to share disgusting things, but the bell really didn't vomit unpleasantly.
I believe that everyone has brushed up on Mother's Day posters posted in elevators across the country in order to publicize a certain brand.
On the surface, it is to celebrate Mother's Day, but the copywriting seems to be rushing to add to the congestion of mothers.
"Once upon a time, my mother used a large bottle of laundry detergent to help us do our laundry, which was very heavy and laborious.
Now, finally, there is xxxx extreme laundry detergent.
The amazing future laundry technology makes mother's laundry easier, less effortless and more worry-free! ”
It seems that the audience is not disgusted enough, and a line of small words is printed on the laundry detergent packaging in the picture:
"Mom, you use it first".
Come, imagine this picture with me.
On Mother's Day every year, you bring out a large box with ribbons tied in front of everyone in the family.
You said Mom, you have worked hard to raise me for so many years, and I have carefully prepared a gift for you, wishing you a happy holiday.
My mother burst into tears, thinking that my eldest son had finally matured.
What exactly is a gift? Gold and silver jewelry? Food travel vouchers? Electronics?
She opened it excitedly in anticipation. surprise！ It's a box of laundry detergent that makes it easier for mom to do laundry!
Guess what mom's reaction might be?
A laughs awkwardly
B is grateful on the surface, but secretly sad
C immediately dumps you with a big ear scraper
I choose C, and I have to blow C up.
Mother's Day to give your mother laundry detergent, this disgusting degree can probably be compared to understanding the donkey who pulls the grinding is too hard, and you will change a gold grinding disc;
Or the knife used to kill the pig is too blunt, and the pig is replaced with a sharper one, and it will kill with one knife.
Is doing laundry a mom's job alone? Did the father unfortunately pass away, or did the son happen to have a broken hand?
Wrap the deed of sale into a gift and tie a beautiful bow. Isn't exploitation exploitation?
Fortunately, the eyes of the masses are bright, and at the same time as this poster, there are various small notes to fight back:
It can only be said that it is very happy.
I feel very relieved.
But in the comment area of complaining about this poster, I saw someone leave a message:
The upper platform is online. Just a copywriter, is it disrespectful to my mother?
I really want to say that the person who talks like this probably underestimates the subtlety of the details of life and the degree of brainwashing of children-
Something similar happened in my house the other day.
I gave Little Gollum a bloody.
He came back from kindergarten and I took him to wash his hands and prepare for dinner. The sink was a bit high, so I pushed a small bench for him to stand on.
After washing his hands, he jumped off the stool and was about to run, but I grabbed him by the collar and asked him to push the bench back to its place.
He pouted, "But you pushed the stool over, and you are responsible for pushing it back......"
I was on fire.
I want to know the reason for this answer, the old people in the family are more spoiled by him, and when we are not at home, we are almost reluctant to let him do any work, which creates an illusion for him that he can not take on housework, even if this thing is actually his.
So I said to him word for word:
"Who's going to wash their hands? Who needs a stool? I'm helping you, not getting used to you. If you really feel like you have to do everything yourself, well, from today onwards, you will cook your own food when you are hungry and boil your own water when you are thirsty.
We won't help you, and we won't ask you to help. If you can't, remember that this is not your home alone, it's the home of all of us, and you're not an emperor, you're a member of the family. Each of us has obligations and also shares in the chores!
If you can't do it, you will go to the kitchen and cook your own dishes in the future. We don't care. ”
Actually, I don't know if he understood. Probably simply worried that you will need to cook your own food in the future? Frightened, he nodded, obediently pushed the stool back, and then sat on the living room stool to eat.
Am I on the line? I guess some people think so. The child casually said, is it necessary to be so angry?
However, there is a saying that the second half of a person's life is usually caused by the habits formed in the first half of life.
What is the habit of the first half of life? Your cognition, your personality, the way you get along with your parents, family, classmates and friends, everything you hear and see in your daily life.
Children in a family not only need to cultivate housework habits from an early age, but also respect for their family and their work.
Little Gollum is less than 5 years old. There are many things that are beyond his strength, so the elders feel sorry for him and don't let him do it.
But if everyone doesn't say it, he will only feel that "I am the center of this family, and I can be justified and not giving, just enjoying".
Since he was a child, he didn't teach him to respect his family, and when he grew up, he naturally shouted and drank at you, and he didn't let him do any housework since he was a child.
Because in his cognition, he was born not to do this.
In a family, if there is only the hostess who washes and mops the floor to cook, the family is doomed.
Because she won't be happy.
The father cultivates the career, and the child has the stars and the sea. Why is it that only the mother's position is to do housework at home?
Don't they deserve their own business, their career, their hobbies, and their dreams?
I really love my mother, please don't continue to exploit under the banner of festivals, and I want her to be grateful. When everything is not a holiday, it is better for mom.
Finally, Happy Mother's Day to all moms. In addition to being a mother, don't forget to be yourself!
