As parents, we all hope that our children will succeed. We habitually serve as mentors for our children as they grow up, giving them advice and teaching them to avoid risks and seize opportunities. But they can also cross boundaries without realizing it, causing children to miss a good opportunity to grow independently. When it comes to raising children, it does not mean that everything is good for the children, and it does not mean that every detail is beneficial to the growth of the children. The greatest success of parents is not how much they pamper their children. In these three things, the less you care about your children, the more promising your children will be. 01: Let children make their own decisions about small things like dressing and eating. Many parents like to force their children to eat, especially things that their children don’t like to eat. The more they resist, the more parents force them to eat. The euphemistic name is that it is for the benefit of children and provides more balanced nutrition, but they never consider from the child\’s perspective whether they can replace it with other similar foods if they don\’t like eating this kind of food. If the child is afraid of iron deficiency, it is okay for the child not to eat spinach but to eat fungus. If your child is afraid of insufficient protein intake and does not like eggs, it is not impossible to use milk instead. What matters is the end result, not the process. As for wearing clothes, parents are always afraid that their children will be cold, especially in winter. When the temperature drops, some parents want to wrap their children into rice dumplings. But for children who are lively and active and have a fast metabolism, being cold is actually not a big problem for them. On the contrary, they will get hot after jumping around for a while. When children are young, you can guide them to develop the habit of not being picky about food and knowing how to add or remove clothes. As children grow older, you should delegate authority to them. If you can\’t make your own decisions about small things like eating and dressing, then what fun is there in life? 02: Write homework and study, let children complete it independently. For parents, children’s learning has always been a big deal. Because it is related to the child\’s future and life. Therefore, when it comes to study, parents can\’t wait to pick up a stick and stare at their children from behind. When you are not concentrating, tap twice. When you don\’t work hard, give a stick. If the homework is not completed, he will be criticized harshly. If you don\’t do well in the exam, you\’ll get scolded all over the place. The child is resistant to learning, and he is trying to persuade him earnestly, but he is also telling the truth and trying to make a fool of himself. He is reluctant to eat and wear clothes, just to provide his child with a better education. Learning, originally a matter for children, eventually became a matter for parents. But is this really good for children? How many children are depressed because of too much stress? How many children choose to end their lives because they are overwhelmed? Instead of watching your child study every day, it is better to let him understand as early as possible that learning is his own business, he needs to complete it independently, and he needs to bear the consequences himself. This is what parents should do. 03: Don’t interfere in matters that require your own decision-making. For parents, no matter how old a child grows, he is still just a child in their eyes. They need their own guidance and guidance. Parents are like a candle, burning themselves out in order to light up their children\’s path. But this is just the wishful thinking of the parents, not the wishes of the children. The older the children get, the more they want to control their own lives. They hope that their parents will respect their choices and not interfere. adolescentChildren behave very rebelliously because they want to establish their own position and whether their life belongs to others or to themselves. If you really love your children, you must learn to let go. Parents should not interfere in matters that require their children to make their own decisions. You think you are helping, but in fact you may be just putting shackles on your child. After all, your child belongs to a newer era. You think he lacks all your foresight, but in fact, it is you who lacks all his creativity. Parents love their children and have far-reaching plans. If you really love your child, you must cultivate his self-care ability. No matter how much you love him, you can\’t stay with him forever. Instead of using your love to protect him and restrain him, it is better to cultivate him into an independent person. Even if you are not around him one day, he can spread his wings and fly high, weathering the wind and rain.
