<h1>Mom is toxic</h1>
Recently, I don't know if it is the summer cool, the mothers are starting to be less irritable or some other reason, in short, there are several explosive articles quietly among friends: similar to how to pretend to be a good mother. All kinds of revealing the true face of my mother, let me have a sharp laugh, deeply sigh a sentence "mother is toxic", may wish to feel a little:
(▲ From: How to Pretend to Be a Good Mother)
▲ (From: How to Pretend to Be a Good Mother)
，
▲From: After being a mother in disguise for so long, it is time for you to re-understand me!
But then again, those mothers who realize that they are toxic must be people who have come over to spit out their own difficulties so easily and funny.
This is why I like to read picture books and like to find my role through picture books: life is not easy, why is it difficult for myself, so formally review myself and find a way out. Accompanying children to see classic picture books not only satisfies the requirements of children's intimate companionship, but also can find clues to enhance themselves from the classics.
Painting instincts to enhance parental growth? Don't believe it, this picture book "Medusa Mother" is a classic that interprets "Mother is toxic".

<h1>Come, dry this thirst-quenching wine</h1>
Revealing the "mother truth", the result of the comparison before and after the birth of the baby is that before the birth of the baby, it is free to do whatever it wants, and it does not care who is the gaze of anyone.
Isn't this also the case with Medusa in the picture book Medusa Mama?
▲ Medusa's long hair curled up the midwife
A blond hair, people are afraid, and giving birth to a baby will almost strangle the midwife with long hair.
However, as soon as the baby was handed over to her, she changed:
▲ The hair with teeth and claws has become a cocoon, can it become a butterfly?
"Roll up the coats of the two midwives with their hair and gently push them out the door."
No matter how unrestrained Medusa was before giving birth, at this time, she transformed into a mother who circled around the child, and her once proud weapon, strong long hair, became a swaddling, a small bed, a rice spoon, a lifebuoy, a ladder... In short, everything related to the daughter Elise's umbrella.
In this way, her daughter Eliza seemed to be poisoning her free and dashing poison, while Medusa drank it willingly.
<h1>Does love let go or hold on? </h1>
Medusa loved Elise so much that she saw her as a pearl, a shell she was willing to be. It seems that every mother feels this way when she sees her child.
But be wary, aren't you too versatile?
▲ Almighty Mother
Seeing such a question and answer, will the almighty mother affect the child's character growth? In this regard, my point is that it is not excluded that there are a few children with special constitutions who are too strong in their hearts to learn her omnipotence from their mothers, and most of them are because their mothers are too omnipotent, and this situation occurs:
lazy. You can do so much, what else can I do?
desert. Nothing is as good as mom, and there is no interest in "doing something".
humble. The power of the flood came out, still not as good as mother, stupid to die.
weak. The above points are summarized: "I can't live without my mother."
Medusa's mother was too focused on her children and too versatile. Whether it was disdain for mortals or confidence in "I can handle it," in short, she refused Medusa to leave her and blend into the world that Elise longed for.
▲ Elise's sorrow
It wasn't until Elise's longing turned into sadness and her vitality turned to loneliness that she woke up.
So she decided to let Eliza live the life she wanted. And Medusa, who was once so powerful, also cut off her trademark long hair in order to better love Elise.

Just like the almighty mother, perhaps in the process of parenting, learn to show weakness, learn to let yourself be gentle, let yourself squat down, in order to let the child see "the original I also have the possibility of being higher than the mother." It also reflects the essence of parental love, "letting go"—the only kind of love in this world that points to separation. Therefore, it is more valuable and more in need of love skills.
This technique is embodied in giving full love and nurturing. —Medusa's mother's initial upbringing of Elise.
Let it go at the right time. - Let Elissé integrate into the school.
Learn to show weakness. Cut off long hair, become soft, and blend into the growing crowd of children.

2. Hidden in the ring is an author, Katie Krauser's hypothesis about egg yolk jellyfish - egg yolk jellyfish (scientific name: Cotylorhiza tuberculata) is a marine organism of the order Of the bowl jellyfish root. There is also a name of the same name as the banshee in Greek mythology, "Medusa". This Easter egg not only allows children to understand the yolk jellyfish to guess why the yolk jellyfish reminds people of Medusa, but also provides a clue for the "poisonous mothers" who are willing to make up stories for their own babies - Katie feels that the tentacles of the yolk jellyfish are similar to Medusa's hair.
