Explain that children have poor self-control, will not spoil, and must be strictly disciplined.

I misread a part of the original allusions, and its source can be found in Zengguang Xianwen. The original words are: "strict father gives birth to a dutiful son, but a loving mother loses more." Similar concepts have been mentioned in various ancient books and have been passed down to this day.

There are not a few cases in which mothers spoil their children so much that they grow into giant babies. In ancient times, the children of royalty and national interests lived in the hands of their mothers since childhood, and it was harmless to let them be spoiled. It is this lack of discipline that will make them leave the care of their parents in the future, and the shelter of their families will be particularly tragic, and many of them will find it difficult to achieve great things.

Of course, there are also examples of strict mothers successfully educating their children. For example, Li moved three times and brought three sons by herself. Therefore, as long as children are strictly taught, the greater the chances of their success.
