What are the lessons for ordinary families in the way Gu Ailing's mom teaches her children?

February 8, 2022. 18-year-old Ailing Gu won the women's freestyle skiing big jump final at this year's Winter Olympics, once again adding "colorful" to her list of accomplishments.

Gu Ailing has been known for a long time, not only because of her good looks, but also because of her outstanding talent. Gu Ailing loves archery, soccer, horseback riding, rock climbing, running and many other sports, and the level of all of them is also much more than ordinary people.

In addition to her love of sports and being an athletic person, Gu Ailing is also a multi-talented student. She specializes in ballet, plays the piano, and has been admitted to Stanford University with honors. (She scored 1,580 out of a possible 1,600 points.)

As the saying goes, "Most good kids have a good home education". Indeed, the reason why Gu Ailing is so outstanding is inseparable from the family environment and family education.

01, the parents of the words and example

Gu Ailing's mother graduated from Peking University, master's degree is in Stanford University, and her father graduated from Harvard University. Her grandparents are also highly educated, and the family has a strong learning atmosphere.

Gu Ailing's mom said, "We create an atmosphere where children will join in if they want to, and we don't have to force them if they don't." The family has a great interest in learning, and Gu Ailing has grown up with it, so he naturally enjoys learning and doesn't see reading as a burden.

Emerson once said, "The kind of man a child will eventually become depends largely on the quality of the love, companionship, and exemplary modeling he receives from his first educator." Parents set a good example for their children, then the children will "follow the lead" to learn, naturally not bad.

02, the exercise of the child's strong will, efforts to lift the child

Gu Ailing's parents will not be because of the child's failure to a time to over-criticize, blame her. They are always the first to understand the situation and then give Gu Ailing enough help. In their daily life, they don't criticize Gu Ailing for her behavior, or even show that she is suffering from a sense of loss. Gu Ailing's parents tell their children to be optimistic and broad-minded.

In terms of learning, Gu Ailing's parents don't ask their child to study all day and all night, but they know the "art" of parenting. They know the "art" of parenting, letting Ailing learn to keep the pressure at a moderate level, to do his best when he's learning, and to have fun when he's doing it.

Children can't grow up without good family education, so parents should try to set a good example for their children and provide a good environment as much as possible.
