Pulling peacock feathers to coax children, what kind of values will be passed on to the next generation?

Recently, a peacock in the scenic spot of Qinhuangdao in Hebei Province was dragged by tourists with a feather, which attracted the attention of netizens.

On the evening of July 10, some netizens posted a video on the social platform saying that in the Yansai Lake Scenic Area of Qinhuangdao, Hebei Province, a female tourist with children dragged a peacock feather hard when watching a peacock in the scenic spot, and the peacock in the picture was obviously greatly frightened, and the female tourist then handed the feather to her child. On the morning of July 11, the scenic spot said in a media interview that it had checked all the peacocks in the scenic spot, and no obvious wounds were found for the time being, and the right to pursue the tourist was retained.

Some netizens left a message saying that there are people selling peacock feathers at the entrance of the scenic spot, and children like to buy them, and they can't be dragged hard from the peacocks to give children a negative education. This also makes many netizens even more angry, this parent in order to coax their children, even the peacock feathers in the scenic spot must be "fresh"?

The peacock opening screen is pleasing to the eye, and the long and bright feathers when the screen is opened are indeed heartwarming, but when you see beautiful feathers, you must "start", and the behavior of taking it for yourself is selfish. Moreover, the parents in the video, who also have children, know that the peacock feathers in the scenic spot are inappropriate, and they also "bravely move forward", which is a bad demonstration.

In the eyes of children, this is not a "heroic" act of getting "booty". Their mother's disregard for rules and moral behavior may also make children realize that as long as they "like", the peacock's feathers can be secretly dragged down, and the original bottom line and rules can be broken at will. Can such "words and deeds" of parents be beneficial to their children's education?

Since kindergarten, both parents and teachers have been teaching children how to love small animals, how to get to parents here but in front of their children to "say a set and do a set"? Behind the fermentation of public opinion, netizens seem to be condemning the inappropriate behavior of parents, but in fact, they are worried that the improper behavior of parents has formed a bad demonstration education for children, unconsciously imitating the behavior of parents, and then step by step becoming the next "bear child".

"Bear children" are headaches and disgusting, but "bear parents" are the "culprits". Everyone sees the "bear children" and is afraid to avoid them, but behind these "bear children" are the unreasonable "bear parents". If you need to pass the exam to qualify as a parent, the parent who plucks the peacock feather must be unqualified.

In educating children, the power of action is much greater than the power of words, and the impact is more profound. This also reminds parents that in the process of taking children, they should pay attention to their words and deeds, sometimes seemingly random behavior, may plant seeds in the child's heart, good seeds can blossom and bear fruit, bad seeds will also be far more poisonous.
