也许你应该学会放松 凯瑟·泰勒的三个孩子的生活十分繁忙.他们的学习生活已经够忙了.然而,放学后,凯瑟还带她的两个儿子从足球场带到篮球场,带她的女儿去钢琴训课.这些疲倦的孩子直到晚上7点才回到家里.他们快速地吃完晚饭,然后去做家庭作业. 泰勒家就像很多美国和英国的家长一样,他们带孩子们参加课外活动,设法充实孩子们的生活.医生说很多孩子都承受着巨大的压力.教师们则抱怨在教室里教疲倦的孩子. 很多孩子都参加了课外俱乐部.活动包括体育运动,外语学习,音乐和数学课程.过于心切的家长并不是什么新鲜事,但是现在的家长越来越厉害地强迫孩子们.家长看到别人的孩子做了很多事情,他们就认为自己的孩子也应该这样. 琳达·米勒,伦敦一位三个孩子的母亲,很清楚这样的压力.“在一些家庭里,竞争在孩子们很小时就开始了.” 她说.“母亲们在孩子很小的时候就把他们送到各种各样的训练班,她们还经常拿自己的孩子与别人的相比.这真是太疯狂了.家长们不应该这么严厉地强迫孩子.” 艾丽斯·格林医生同意她的看法.她说这样下去,等孩子们长大了,他们会发现为自己很困独立思考.家长们总是设法计划好孩子们的生活.等这些孩子长大成人,他们会发现安排自己是事情是件很困难的事情.家长们应该学会留给孩子们一些自己的时间.一方面,孩子们需要课外活动.另一方面,他们也需要时间和自由去放松,他们需要时间独行其事.如果答案您满意,请记得采纳噢!(*^__^*) ……
