Other children may be good at learning, independent, polite and positive, but my children may not be strong in these aspects.
I have such a little girl. She doesn't argue, she doesn't rob, she doesn't like acting, she doesn't compete for strength, she is very peaceful. At the same time, she also has a steelyard in her heart, which is clear about right and wrong. She has no special requirements for her family, and she never asks for a brand of clothes. Even if it is second-hand, she dresses beautifully. Although she doesn't say hello to everyone, she behaves very politely.
Such a little girl is so ordinary, outstanding and disliked among many peers. But these are not advantages in others' eyes, but they are in life, not advantages.
As an ordinary person, he is peaceful and does not seek strength. Maybe in the future, he will lead a more relaxed life, behave more openly and live a more "Buddhist" life in this society.
If you don't pursue the brand, at least there will be no psychological competition at present. Some people are others' and some people are mine. Personally, I think it is better to have this mentality when I was a child, at least I won't spend energy and financial resources because of "brand" in the future.
I don't want my daughter to be excellent, or to excel in everything in the group where she lives. I just hope that she can be ordinary, always aware of her own shortcomings and not be self-centered.
Sometimes, for the sake of our children, we may stop worrying, wait a minute, give them some time, and you may see amazing changes. Sometimes, for our own children, a good analysis of their "shortcomings", perhaps these "shortcomings" can also become our peace of mind "advantages." Sometimes, when we are angry with children, it may be better to calm down and change the way.
As parents, we should learn to analyze, endure and appreciate. While other people's children are excellent, our own children also have many advantages.
