Most parents hope that their children can be happy and successful. But do you know the best way to encourage them to be so? The answer is to allow them to make their own decisions.
Unfortunately, popular culture has different ideas about children’s decision making. Most parents make decisions for their children – what they wear, what they eat and what movies they watch. In fact, it’s not good for children’s growing.
Parents should allow children to make decisions when they are very young. But this doesn’t mean children are allowed to do everything. For example, you shouldn’t take your children into a store and tell them they can have anything they want. They would be overwhelmad(不知所措的) by the choices (选择). But you can give them a choice among snacks. When children get older, “expand” the number of choices you give them. For example, allow them to decide the activities they want to take part in or when they go to bed.
The next step is to get your children to think before they act. Let them ask themselves several important questions. First, why do I want to do this? Second, what are my choices? Third, what are the results of the actions? After these questions, they are sure to have right decisions.
