Recently, a short video of "blind children go to school alone, and mothers follow behind silently protect" has touched countless netizens and received widespread attention and praise.
Blind boy Pengpeng, 10 years old, was born blind, and was sent by his parents to the Zigong Special Education School at the age of 5, and is in the fourth grade this year.
According to Pengpeng's mother, "It's painful when you're born, and it's painful when you find your child invisible. ”
But my mother also said: "Since I was born, I have not given up on him." ”
I could see that when my mother said this, her face was still a determined look.
After discovering the pain of the child's congenital blindness, she stopped suffering herself and began to make plans for the child's life, which is really down-to-earth for the child's future life.
In the short video of Pengpeng's mother, it is all Pengpeng's growth record, and the more you understand, the more you discover the greatness and wisdom of this rural mother.
The greatest asset given to a child is to make him independent
In order to let pengpeng's parents let him study special schools, learn knowledge, and learn to be self-reliant, the couple deliberately moved their family from the countryside to the urban area of Zigong City, which was to think of the problems after the children grew up.
Mom said: "We have to face him grow up to live independently, now I take him, I can accompany him, hold him every day, but not long, I can't accompany him forever." 」 ”
"So one day I will leave him, let him go on his own, live independently, do anything independently."
At first, Pengpeng was still a residential student, and not long after, the couple resolutely gave up the residential school, let their son go to school, and took him home every day to increase the time for companionship and teaching.
I have to say that this is really too wise for parents, read a special school, live in the school first, and then go to school, and gradually plan how to live independently for the child.
Cowell's female writer Munir Nassouf said in her book "Family" that independent ability is the foundation of life.
Although the child has a birth defect, the parents do not give up, but pay more energy to teach the child how to be independent and how to survive.
Under the cultivation of his parents, Pengpeng learned to wash his face, brush his teeth, take a bath, and get dressed.
At home, you can also help your parents do simple housework, cleaning, helping to wash dishes is not a problem.
Because parents know that for their children, independence is his greatest asset.
Trust your child
When you didn't see pengpeng's mother's video, do you dare to believe that a 10-year-old blind child can go to school alone?
In today's environment, not to mention blind children, the parents of 10-year-old normal children are not necessarily at ease to let him go to school alone.
But Pengpeng's mother firmly believes that her son can do it, and this trust has a lot to do with the efforts her mother and Pengpeng have made over the years.
Fortunately, Pengpeng was angry, and his mother could let him go alone.
Because he firmly believes that in addition to not seeing, his own children can be like other children, so his mother takes him to feel everything in the world, to the fields to feel the crops, to the supermarket to feel what various commodities are like.
Because he firmly believes that the child will eventually go out independently, he is taught how to take the elevator alone.
Believing that his child could move without being blind, he taught him to ride a bicycle.
Teach him to jump rope.
Without looking closely, can you tell that this is a blind child? Is it good to behave fantastically!
The mother said that her biggest wish is that her son can be independent as soon as possible, and when he grows up, he can have a skill and be able to live independently.
British psychologist Sylvia said: "The real successful love of parents is to separate the child from your life as an independent individual as soon as possible." The sooner this separation, the more successful you will be. ”
On the other hand, a teacher on the Internet posted the chat records of primary school parents, and they probably felt that their children were not as independent as blind children?
Optimistic mentality, not self-suffering
In pengpeng's growth record video, he is often very happy, still maintaining the innocent happiness that a teenager should have, and I believe that his mother must also be an optimistic person.
A large number of studies have shown that if children grow up in a democratic, harmonious and civilized family environment, children will be emotionally stable, cheerful, emotionally rich, and self-confident.
Pengpeng will also give his mother cold medicine when his mother is sick, and he will pinch his mother's feet when his mother is tired, he is really a good child who knows how to be grateful and knows how to care for his parents.
This mother not only teaches her children to be independent, she also has a job herself, not to take care of the children full-time, the words and deeds of parents are the best examples, want their children to be independent, they want to be more independent.
The child was unlucky, and luckily he met his mother, who loved him.
It's like there's a very moving line in "Please Answer 1988": "Because God can't be everywhere, he created His mother." "
Mom was a light in his life, illuminating the path of his life.
What can we do for people with disabilities?
After netizens saw the video of Pengpeng going to school alone, they were very touched and the comments were very warm.
Someone praised this mom's approach to education.
It has also been suggested that our entire society, everyone, can give people with disabilities the help they can.
Refusal to discriminate.
People with disabilities are destined to endure more unusual eyes and are more sensitive than the average person.
The discriminatory eyes of others and the way they whisper to them can bring great harm to people with disabilities and their families.
So we can do without discriminating against them, and treating them equally like ordinary people is to help them.
2. Think differently and learn to be inclusive.
If a person with a disability affects you, think differently, did he mean it? If you are like him, will you accidentally affect others?
If you can't help, more understanding and tolerance for them is also a manifestation of quality.
3. Reason helps them.
If you encounter a disabled person on the road who needs help, do not help in a high-profile way, you can rationally ask them "do you need help".
They are also strong and sometimes don't need help, but well-meaning care always gives warmth.
