No one is a saint, and no one can make mistakes. How should parents educate children who make mistakes?
Don’t rush to conclusions and criticize children. Children have colorful hearts, and sometimes the things they do are unreasonable and cannot be understood by adults. The main reason is that adults always like to use adults' fixed ideas to infer children's thoughts, speculate on children's motives, and are eager to evaluate or even criticize children's behavior. In fact, children are already anxious when they do something wrong. If you criticize them openly at this time, it will make the child even more afraid. Therefore, when a child makes a mistake, do not rush to conclusions or blame, but first understand the ins and outs of the matter and then educate.
Parents who want their children to take the initiative to admit their mistakes and be responsible should not blindly follow the trend and yell when their children make mistakes. Wanting your children to realize that they are wrong and take responsibility for their mistakes is what a truly good parent should do. Especially when children are young, due to incomplete thinking growth and development, they do not understand what is right, what is wrong, what should be done and what should not be done. Parents can only let them truly understand what is right and wrong. They will remember it and make sure they don't do it again in the future.
There is no need to severely criticize children. Since ancient times, the traditional ideas of "famous teachers produce brilliant disciples" and "strict fathers produce filial sons" are unshakable in everyone's minds. Many parents feel that if they criticize their children severely, they will not be able to resist the temptation. Only by making mistakes can you become successful. In fact, this concept is incorrect. If parents severely criticize their children when they do something wrong, it may have a certain effect at that time, but over time, the children will easily forget it, which will not effectively solve the mistakes made by the children.
My parents were also children, and I have made mistakes in the past, so I need to be more aware of the children's emotions, so don't put the sins you have suffered on the children, and let the children have feelings for their parents. Misunderstandings harm parent-child communication. As the old saying goes: "No one is perfect, and no one is perfect." The key is to have the courage to admit your mistakes after making them and take responsibility for them. Therefore, parents should not use incorrect methods to educate children who make mistakes.
