My child, accompany you to register and watch your back Holding a big schoolbag and running into the huge new campus with a face full of joy, thinking that in the next ten years or so, you will spend most of your time on campus. As a parent, my mother is filled with joy and expectation, but also with anxiety and uneasiness. .

How many parents, like mothers, watch their children’s slim figures disappear in a corner of the campus, pray that their children’s educational journey will be smooth and undisturbed, and look forward to their children’s dreams getting better and better tomorrow.

Mom thought, there should be many, many.

As ordinary children, we do not have the enviable and dazzling aura of famous teachers and famous classes in famous schools, but as a mother, mother still hopes that you can meet a teacher who holds a ruler and has light in his eyes. Be a student who is respectful and never loses his faith.

01

A teacher with light in his eyes and love in his soul

Will sow your first dream in life

Children, in the past When you were a child, your mother once told you about her own path to school.

Due to a poor family, my mother did not enter school until she was 7 and a half years old. She had never been to a kindergarten before and did not know her ABCs. Until the third grade of elementary school, my mother did not show any extraordinary talent, and due to poor math scores, her grades were once in a mess.

Fortunately, my mother met some teachers who had light in their eyes. They come from humble origins and are simple and unpretentious, but they are sincere and warm and have the world at heart.

One is my mother’s Chinese teacher in elementary school. She has white hair, a red face, a loud voice, and can sing. Her slender eyes shed a soft and friendly light.

It was him who wrote the comment "True feelings, touching people's hearts" in big red letters on his mother's composition for the first time. It was also his first time that he read his mother's composition as a model essay in class. , while reading, I encouraged my mother with the corner of my eye: This sentence is good, what is so good about it, that sentence needs to be changed, and how to change it.

The encouraging light in this teacher’s eyes is like the starlight in the thick dark night, and also like the orange light on the long mountain road. It illuminates my mother’s path to study in her poor childhood, and also strengthens my mother. The life dream of writing to survive.

Over the years, my mother’s ability to write some sincere words and receive some positive praise has something to do with the bright-eyed Chinese teacher she met in her childhood.

Child, when you read some more books, read some more people, and experience some more things, you will understand what kind of impact a teacher with light in his eyes and love in his soul will have on you:

Their fairness, kindness, sincerity and light will reflect the original appearance of the world in your clear eyes, and will also sow the first dream of future life in your young heart.

Mom hopes that you can meet such a teacher.

A good education will not cultivate flowers in the greenhouse

but will cultivate towering trees

However, children, You have to know that blind accommodation and concession, blind encouragement and tolerance can only cultivate flowers in the greenhouse, but cannot cultivate towering trees.

A good education must be a combination of leniency and severity, with clear rewards and punishments; a good teacher must be a combination of discipline and kindness, and a combination of severity and kindness.

Nowadays, our education is filled with the atmosphere of "at home, parents are reluctant to take care of it, but at school, teachers dare not take care of it".

This is the tragedy of education in this era, the misunderstanding of encouraging education, the misalignment of the relationship between teachers and students, and the deviation and blasphemy of the essence of education.

As a mother, my mother does not agree with the stick education of violent feeding, and is even more opposed to the abnormal and cruel corporal punishment education, but she supports reasonable and moderate punishment education.

If you neglect your studies, insult the teacher, and bully your classmates at school, and the teacher criticizes and punishes you in his own way, don’t expect your mother to stand by you, complain everywhere, make unreasonable troubles, and sue the teacher. Discredit the school. Mom can't do it.

Because, since you were growing up, while your mother loves you, loves you, teaches you and raises you, she also often criticizes and punishes you, and occasionally repairs you when she can't control her emotions.

Therefore, my mother thinks that the teacher who pays attention to your growth, while transmitting textbook knowledge and principles of life to you, has the right to discipline you - this is part of education, and mother should support this and educate you. This tolerance.

Teachers who are strict with you,

Don’t be hostile, but be grateful

To illustrate this point , Mom decided to tell you another story from the past.

My mother had a Chinese language and calligraphy teacher when she was in middle school. She was tall, with a Chinese character face, extremely strict, and prone to criticism. Her thick eyebrows and big eyes had a kind of self-imposed light.

Every week when it was his turn to take calligraphy class, some students who were lazy and had poor handwriting were trembling with fear.

Because when this teacher teaches calligraphy, he will put a ruler in the lesson plan. Once he finds that a student writes carelessly or perfunctorily, he will not only order him to write again, but also put a ruler on the palm of his left hand. Give it a hard five.

"Chinese characters are the treasure of the Chinese nation and the badge of Chinese culture. If you can't write Chinese characters well, what else can you do?!" The teacher's words still ring in my mother's ears.

Under his strict requirements, the calligraphy of the students in our class was repeatedly praised. Even my mother, who was originally poor at writing, developed a good calligraphy that year and was often praised after working. Powerful and beautiful writing."

A few days ago, my mother returned to her hometown and met this retired teacher with gray hair and a stooped back in a small restaurant next to the middle school in the town.

He was sitting in a noisy restaurant eating peanuts and drinking wine with the boy in our class who got the most slaps from him back then, reminiscing about the past.

"Teacher, if it weren't for your strict control back then, I would have been ruined long ago." The classmate who is now the boss of a cultural company in Beijing said to the teacher.

The teacher took a sip from his glass and replied: "I don't regret slapping you. Only responsible teachers care about students!"

Yes, children, only responsible teachers Only the best teachers care about students.

Therefore, don’t be hostile to teachers who are strict with you, but be grateful.

Because only responsible teachers will endure all kinds of pressure and risks to discipline you with earnest words or with force.

He expects you to become a good person, so he is so thankless for your efforts.

This is the paradox of preaching and teaching, and it is also the deep affection of a teacher.

Mom hopes that you can understand this as soon as possible.

Although you no longer study for others,

but you must fight for yourself

Children, you are now I don’t have to worry about food and clothing, and I don’t have to worry about food and drink, unlike my mother’s generation who grew up in an era of material scarcity and poverty.

This is your luck and your misfortune.

You don’t have to be like your mother when she was a child, who used study as the only springboard to get out of the farm and poor family, study hard, burn the midnight oil, and fight to the end in order to get rid of the difficult life and humble fate.

You don’t have to do what your mother did when she was a child, by learning good knowledge, getting good grades, and going to a good university to repay the parents who were poor, sick and in trouble and sold iron to support their children’s education.

You don’t have to be like your mother when she was growing up, in the swamp of low self-esteem and the pursuit of hunger and poverty. You don’t have to regard studying and studying as your dream in life, and regard the glory of your parents as your lifelong belief.

But my child, in this era of rapid development, abundant resources, and abundant talents, if you want to stand out, stand out, and be superior to others, it is more difficult than in my mother's time, and you need to work harder. .

Although you are no longer forced to make a living, no longer coerced by your parents, and no longer controlled by fate when you study today, it shoulders more missions that may seem invisible but are actually heavy: you have the right to choose. The job you like has the capital to not lose the dignity you value, and the ability to live a happy life.

Yes, children, after the struggles and battles of our parents, in your generation, learning has finally returned from the utilitarian role of "Yan Ruyu's Golden House" to its true nature of "self-choice and self-realization" , but its attributes as a growth ladder, adult certificate and achievement medal have not changed from beginning to end.

Although you no longer learn for others, you must fight for yourself.

Your academic qualifications and qualifications, your intelligence and courage, your cultivation and your moral character are compulsory courses for you as a student, and they are also your business card for making a living in society.

Mom hopes that you can have this.

05

May you be away for half your life and come back as a young man

May you study all your life and look back with love by your side

The sword has been worn That's right, the school is also a world. The wine is still warm and there is no retreat in life.

My child, forgive my mother for talking so much.

Mom’s biggest wish is not that you can get the teacher’s favor and God’s favor, but that you can have dreams without losing faith, learn to be a good person while studying, understand the rules when being a good person, and know how to respect the rules. Live life in reverence.

As a child from an ordinary family, you must understand:

Learning is not a pleasant thing. Only those who have endured hardship are qualified to talk about the joy of learning.

Campus is not a paradise without competition. Only those who dare to draw their swords are qualified to be their own heroes.

Struggle is not easy to achieve overnight. Only those who continue to learn and transcend throughout their lives have the capital to live up to their expectations in life.

Children, for your own study and path, career and dreams, life and life, go out bravely.

May you be away for half your life and still be a young man when you return.

May you study for a lifetime and look back with love by your side.

This is my mother’s wish, and it is also the wish of all parents in the world.
