Many parents work outside all year round and directly let the elderly discipline their children. This leaves many children lacking the caring education they deserve. When asked about their children's education, many parents will emphasize that they are busy at work and have no time to take care of their children, etc., thus shirking their responsibilities.

Nobel Prize winner Marie Curie gave birth to her eldest daughter Irena at the age of 30, and her youngest daughter Eve at the age of 37. At that time, Madame Curie was at a critical stage of discovering radioactive elements 1 and radium. She had to do hundreds of experiments every day, coupled with heavy housework, so that Madame Curie didn't even have a chance to breathe, but she didn't Thus giving up motherly duties. Even on the busiest, hardest and most tiring days, she would take a certain amount of time every day to take care of her children, inspire and educate them. Later, the reason why the two daughters were able to achieve great success in their respective careers was inseparable from Mrs. Curie's conscientious upbringing.

Take a look at the following example:

When Weiwei was a child, she fell asleep listening to her father's stories and her mother's nursery rhymes every day. However, since Weiwei went to kindergarten, he almost never heard his father's stories and mother's nursery rhymes. In his impression, his parents always said that they were busy, leaving early and coming back late, and rarely had time to accompany her. One day, while her mother was sorting documents at her desk, Weiwei clamored to listen to children's songs. Her mother had no choice but to say to her father: Husband, go tell the child a story and let him go to bed quickly. Dad looked up at the time and said, "It's better for you to go. I have to catch up on a manuscript and I really can't spare the time." ”

A few days later, my mother went to the kindergarten to attend a parent-teacher meeting. The teacher reported to her mother that Weiwei’s performance in class was very poor: she did not listen to the teacher, did not like to play with the children, etc. He also gave the mother some suggestions, the most important of which was that she hoped parents could take more time to communicate with and play with their children every day. This made the mother feel very regretful and ashamed. She and her husband have felt guilty since the child was a toddler. Busy with her career, leaving early and coming back late every day, she really neglected to care for and educate her children.

That day, my mother came home early and read storybooks with Hengheng. My father also put aside his work after returning home. , playing games with Weiwei. Mom and dad were pleased to see that the long-lost happy smile appeared on Weiwei's face. From then on, Weiwei's parents set a new principle for themselves, requiring seven days a day. You have to go home after 8 o'clock, and any work and entertainment must be postponed to later.

As the pace of life accelerates, parents are becoming more and more busy at work, and they are also less concerned about their children's education. Less and less. Is it necessary to give up the responsibility of being a parent and giving up the care and education of your children because you are busy with work? Of course not, children's attachment to their parents is innate and natural. The natural attachment relationship needs to be consolidated and developed in the mutual interactions between parents and children. Especially in the early stages of life, children are unable to understand many principles of the adult world. Feelings and experiences are all they have - "Parents are with them every day. ", this is the biggest wish and happiness in the hearts of all children.

Parents are the main participants in family education. While they are busy, they should take some time to accompany their children every day and give them more care. and education, so that the family can be more harmonious and the children can grow up healthier and happier.

So, how can parents better fulfill their parental duties when they are busy?

Caring for children is a responsibility

It is the bounden duty of parents to educate their children well. This is not only responsible for the children's life, but also responsible for the entire society. Parents should assume the responsibility of raising children and cannot take it as their own responsibility. However, many parents lack a strong sense of responsibility and often use busy work as an excuse to neglect caring for and educating their children. This is a sign of irresponsible parents.

Parents should realize their important role in educating their children and strive to give their children more care and education spiritually, instead of just acting as cash machines for their children.

Maintain a good relationship with the little ones

A good parent-child relationship is the goal and core of family education. Therefore, parents must abandon the idea that I am a parent and I have the final say. "The traditional concept of living in harmony with children in an attitude of equality and respect. If parents are usually busy at work, they should talk to their children more when they are with their children or on the phone to make them feel warm, caring, Family topics. For example, "Mom and dad are too busy during this time. Is there anything I can do to help the baby?" "Tell me what's bothering you recently and see if I can help you solve it," etc. This kind of communication can make children develop a strong affinity for their parents.

Parents must not talk to each other as soon as they meet. Asking questions about children's academic performance, etc., because there is no harmonious parent-child relationship as a basis, such questions can easily trigger children's rebellious psychology, thinking "you usually don't care about me, but you ask me about my studies when we meet, why?", thus It will lead to conflicts and estrangement between parents and children. Don't say things like "I'm so busy every day that I don't have time to take care of you" or "I'm so tired every day, all because of you." It is not conducive to building a good parent-child relationship.

Have more emotional communication with your children.

In addition, no matter how busy parents are at work, they must take time to communicate with their children’s teachers, because It is impossible for a child to tell his parents everything, especially his weaknesses and mistakes. In this case, it is best for parents not to communicate directly with their children. This can easily arouse the child's resistance and resentment, and affect the relationship with the child. At this time, parents must understand their children’s problems through home-school communication and help them correct them in a timely manner.
