How grandparents should teach their grandchildren

Too many people can't afford to buy two suites. Parents, children and grandchildren live together in a three-generation household, which is the current social status quo. The children have to work hard to support their families, and not only do they have to take care of the housework, but they also have to take care of their children. According to a sample survey conducted by an authoritative organization, more than 70% of young parents nowadays entrust their children's upbringing and education to the elderly at home, while less than 30% of the children are raised by their parents. Elderly people from other generations have become the main force in bringing up children. Grandparents have to take care of their children's lives and educate their grandchildren's studies. This gives rise to the question of how grandparents can properly educate their grandchildren.

The education of grandparents to grandchildren can focus on the ideological level. Grandparents have been through the vicissitudes of life, through the spring and fall, accumulated a wealth of life experience and wisdom and talent, their understanding of life is more profound, more authoritative. A nation has a traditional heritage, and a family has a traditional heritage. The grandfather and grandmother to their own life summarized life wisdom and spiritual wealth to the grandchildren, grandchildren learn from their grandparents' life experience and lessons, carry forward the good spirit and style of their grandparents, is tantamount to standing on the shoulders of their grandchildren, their life will have a higher starting point.

The grandchildren inherited the psychological genes of the previous generation, and their emotional world is often similar to that of their fathers and grandfathers. Therefore, the inheritance of the life experience of the grandparents is suitable and applicable to the grandchildren, which can not be replaced by social education and school education.

In modern society, people are impatient, and a lot of good traditional morals are gradually disappearing, and some of the quick success and flashy social culture is affecting our children. Grandparents to grandchildren to talk about the national sentiment, the spirit of hard work, the virtues of hard work and thrift. It is even more valuable.

However, grandparents nurture their grandchildren, there are also drawbacks to be noted to overcome. As the saying goes, the old man is close to each other, the grandfather and grandmother love the little grandchildren, so the old man will be extraordinarily loving grandchildren. If this mentality is magnified without boundaries, the old man will be prone to spoiling and indulging his grandchildren. The actual life has too many of these lessons. Before the grandchildren are 6 years old, it is a critical period for intellectual development, various ability cultivation, as well as the formation of good habits and character. The old man's obedience to the grandchildren, pampering, will let the grandchildren produce dependence, and over time will develop dependence, hindering the child's independent ability to develop and the formation of a sound personality. Therefore, grandparents should overcome the irrational spoiling of grandchildren, the heart to be "hard" some. Of course, this is not to advocate the traditional education concept of "filial son under the stick", but the child can do things by themselves to let the child to do, the grandchildren made mistakes to be corrected in a timely manner. This will help you to develop the independence and responsibility of your grandchildren and enhance their self-care ability and self-confidence.

Children and the elderly live in different times, different concepts, especially children with higher education, but also has the parents do not have the modern concepts. There is a contradiction between the two when it comes to educating their grandchildren. In addition, now is the information age, the grandchildren have seen a lot of things since they were young, and some of the contents and methods used by the elderly to educate their grandchildren are outdated. Therefore, grandparents should also keep abreast of the times by reading books and attending various seminars to learn more about the knowledge and experience of educating the next generation. It is important to discuss more with young people and listen to their opinions. In terms of the contents and methods of educating grandchildren, the opinions of mothers, fathers and grandparents must be unified. In the education of grandchildren, the main characters are their parents, as long as the parents are there, grandparents have to let go. Mom and dad are sometimes too hasty to children, too harsh, grandparents can communicate behind the back of the reminder, can not be corrected face to face.
