Last summer, Grandpa Maodou proposed to take Maodou back to his hometown for two weeks. There is a saying: \”The so-called happiness is when the naughty child is not at home for a day.\” I really wanted to take a breath, and immediately agreed happily. I had a great time the past few days. I spent the day shopping and eating, and finally had time to have sex at night. Within a few days, I desperately missed my child. When he went to his hometown to pick up Maodou, Grandpa Maodou proudly declared: \”My grandson can spell out the map of China.\” He said: \”The child has a bright mind. I taught him that Zhejiang is on the right, Tibet is on the left, and the cockscomb is Heilongjiang. He I remembered it all at once, and now I spell it all out by myself.\” After thanking my grandfather for his hard work, I couldn\’t be happier at all. I said to grandpa: \”Dad, it\’s better not to teach your children too much knowledge.\” Grandpa blew his beard and stared: \”Is it wrong to love teaching children knowledge?\” Yes! Edamame likes to build Lego very much. One day, he and I were building a racing car together, and then something surprising happened. He hit pedestrians with the car. I wanted to stop him: \”Cars can\’t hit people!\” But I held back because I wanted to see what he wanted to do. He added another module to the car, and now the car was bulging, as if it had a hump. Then something even more surprising happened. He suddenly drove the car in front of a pedestrian and then stopped suddenly in front of the pedestrian, successfully avoiding a car accident. He pointed to the module added after the car and said: \”This is the data package. With the data package, no one needs to drive the car, and it will not hit anyone.\” At that moment, his dad and I were a little touched. The technical essence of driving? The last time Maodou Dad came back from a business trip in the United States, we chatted at the dinner table and talked excitedly about technological innovations. Among them, big data has reduced the accident rate of driverless driving to an extremely low level. I didn’t expect that a 3-year-old child would remember it like this. If I had interrupted him with my low thinking and told him, \”It\’s not okay to hit someone!\” would there still be any child\’s imagination? Only 2% of future children will become useful people to society, and the remaining 98% may be eliminated. This is not what I said. This is what Wu Jun, the former vice president of Tencent, said after visiting famous universities in Britain and the United States. There are only two paths that children in the future can choose: either join the smart wave and become the top 2% of people, or wait and see and be eliminated. Children without the ability to think are destined to have their jobs taken away by robots. This is not alarmist. Maodouba’s company is headquartered in the United States. He goes to the United States for business trips every few months and is surprised that machines are increasingly replacing people. A large factory with tens of thousands of square meters under management only needs one or two technicians, and the rest are all machines! machine! machine! Most of those workers and low-end white-collar workers who only knew how to perform tasks were unemployed. Is it wrong to love teaching children too much? Yes, I have! In the era of intelligence, \”memorizing\” means backward productivity! Now let’s share with you our useful tips on how to teach children to develop their thinking skills. First: teach children less or not to memorize. The so-called memory is copying the past. And children create the future. In the first thing, edamame can assemble the map of China. Why am I unhappy? Because the real purpose of puzzles is to think. Discover the similarities and differences of colors and find the fit of shapes. Your thinking ability will reach a higher level and you will be able to challenge more difficult tasks.When I was little, I trained Edamame to do the simplest hand color puzzles, and now he can easily piece together complex four-layer puzzles. But if you can put together a map of China, can you put together a map of the world? No way! He can only remember the locations of 34 provinces at most. Second: Don’t interfere too much and let the children try on their own. Do you still remember the position when your baby learns to get out of bed for the first time in his life? I have seen the groping process of Edamame: After carefully adjusting his posture, Edamame turned over with his back facing outwards, grabbed the sheets with both hands, dug one foot into the ground, and maintained balance with the other. I was surprised to find that all the children got out of bed backwards when no one was there to guide them! Rather than getting out of bed as adults take it for granted. I told the pediatrician about this during Edamame’s physical examination. The doctor said: \”All babies get out of bed at the beginning of their lives. It\’s just that too many self-righteous parents like to interfere and destroy the baby\’s thinking ability.\” Third: Don\’t give your children deterministic answers and ask questions often. His three questions: Why? What do you think? If it were you, what would you do? These three questions force children to think independently, instead of just believing what adults say or following what others say. Fourth: Tell your children stories without endings. When I was a child, I heard stories that ended with \”the prince and the princess lived happily ever after.\” Now, it seems like nonsense. What I heard since I was a child are all brainless youth. Idol. There is no standard answer in life. A princess may not necessarily marry a prince, but may also marry a birdman. What is really beneficial to children are those open-ended stories. When telling a story to your child, give it a beginning, but don’t finish it. Let the child analyze what will happen next and make up the ending. This will open up the child’s mind. A Zhihu user said: There is a boy in her community who studies knowledge every day. From memorizing ancient poems to Chinese, from oral arithmetic to Mathematical Olympiads, there are only classes you can\’t think of, and there are no classes he hasn\’t taken before. He is on his way to class when he is not in class for two days on weekends. However, the first failure came quickly. All the private schools failed when they were young children. The children entered the public primary school in the film. As long as they have a registered residence, they can go to school. In other words, in addition to leaving behind a bunch of fancy certificates, even the so-called self-confidence was shattered when losing the election. The child is now unknown and nothing is ever heard from him again. Is this a prospect you want to see? If you want to raise a child who can adapt to society, teach him knowledge. But if you want to raise a child who will lead society, teach him to think independently!
