Children are like blank slate of paper, we adults mould them into what they r now, how do we derive this... ...
Let's see....
If children live with disparage,
they learn to criticize....
If children live with mockery,
they learn to scorn...
If children live with offensive,
they learn to be odious...
BUT
If children live with encouragement,
they learn to be hearten...
If children live with happiness,
they learn to be contentment...
If children live with appreciation,
they learn to be grateful...
Seeeeeee whatever we want for our children, we play a very important role in their lives.
Yes i totally agree in the importance and the emphasis of our culture that education is the prime & major fixation in their life. We are always trying to provide them with the most conducive and beneficial environment to aid them in excelling in school.
But have we ever stop n ponder, due to all this external factors are we neglecting on our children most basic need? (Happiness)A child is always a child, no matter what we have no rights to deprive them on being happy. I totally believe that if you r learning through play you will definitely reap more than you are being force to learn. Just like adults, ALL of us desire to work on something that interest us, but how many of us are lucky enough to get a job that's of our interest? Hmm... ...
Anyway, education is not everything okie...If he is sick n not feeling well, jolly well allow him to rest at home & recuperate, & not compel him to NOT miss lesson... ...
Somebody says:
If you wish to study men you must not neglect to mix with the society of children.
