Man's law is based on the earth, the earth is based on the sky, the sky is based on the Tao, and the Tao is natural. Nature itself is the teacher of our life. When we understand nature and the growth law of a tree, we begin to understand how to educate children.
Adults often say, "I hope you can thrive like a big tree!" " When they send blessings to their children. We are full of expectations for our children, hoping that they will live a happy life, blossom and achieve something. But have we ever wondered where a strong tree came from?
The formation of a big tree needs a seed first. Then the seedlings should constantly absorb the nutrients needed for their growth from the roots. At the same time, saplings need fertile soil, plenty of clear water and moderate illumination. When the saplings grow taller and the branches become stronger, the saplings will grow crooked because of some external forces in this process, so it is also important to guide the external forces in time.
The sapling slowly grows leaves, and the green leaves are mixed with a few yellow leaves. Nurses spend a lot of time to remove those yellow leaves, but forget to deliver nutrition to the roots of saplings, forget to water saplings, and forget to correct saplings that are a little crooked ... Finally, there are more and more yellow leaves on saplings, and nurses become restless, even disgusted, blamed and complained about it, but the situation has not improved at all, but has increased.
"It takes ten years to plant trees, but it takes a hundred years to cultivate people", and saplings are like our children. "Seeds" are like parents' genes, and roots are like parents' education, which affects children's life. Soil, moisture and sunshine are like the external environment for children to grow up, and the quality of the environment is equally important to children. Trunk is like a growing child and needs constant guidance.
Leaves are like the advantages and disadvantages of children, green leaves represent advantages and yellow represents disadvantages. When parents expect their children to be perfect, they will spend a lot of time removing yellow leaves, but turn a blind eye to green leaves, ignoring their own growth and creating a good environment. Finally, in the name of love, they will "ruin" the child's life.
Therefore, parents must understand that cultivating an excellent child is like cultivating a tree seedling, not spending time on yellow leaves, but spending time on roots and environment!
