Today’s parents hope that their children will become successful and their daughters will become successful. They always want their children to get the first place in the class or even the whole grade. However, Bai Yansong does not require his children to get the first place. He said to his children: "If you get first place in the exam, we will sever the relationship between father and son!" Many parents were amazed. Why is this? Because Bai Yansong feels that there is no need to compete for first place in anything, which puts too much pressure on children.
And if a child always takes the first place in the exam, he will have no room for improvement. If he does not make progress, he will regress. Once a person has been in a high position for a long time, he will be lonely. Once he is stepped down, My heart won't be able to bear it. A child's mind is still quite immature. If he gets first place every time and suddenly gets second place one day, then his heart will definitely be very hurt, so there is no need to do everything. Fight for first place.
Bai Yansong’s educational methods also awakened many parents. Perhaps it was Bai Yansong’s own experience that gave him a different view of children. When he said this to his children at the time, he also said The fear of putting too much pressure on the child is a joke, but this joke is also the fear that the child will put too much pressure on himself. Bai Yansong knows at what stage he can guide the child to go better.
I think this is very important. In fact, learning does not mean everything. What is more important is the company of parents for their children. What parents should do is how to guide and help their children to learn, rather than blindly If you try to force your children, such an approach will only be counterproductive and will not bring any good results. Therefore, you should educate your children step by step and do not put pressure on your children.
