I was giving the baby a bath, putting shampoo on his head, and letting him close his eyes while rinsing with water. The baby yelled: \”Why haven\’t you finished washing yet? Why haven\’t you finished washing yet?\” I was so angry: \”Why are you so anxious? Every time I ask you to take a bath, it\’s like going to the execution ground. Shut up.\” Suddenly, I was stunned. Suddenly, I remembered my childhood: When I was a child, I went to a big bathhouse with my mother to take a bath, and I was scalded by hot water until I wanted to pee. I even climbed up to the edge of the pool and said, \”Hot!\” My mother shouted, \”Why is it hot? No one else is afraid of the heat, but you are afraid of the heat.\” She pulled me into the water. Then the second half became even more uncomfortable, and my mother’s strong scrubbing made my skin red and peeling. She shouted, “It hurts!” My mother said angrily, “Why are you so delicate? Can you get rid of the dirt without scrubbing hard?” At that time, my family lived in There is only one public toilet in the courtyard. When the street lights were dim at night, I asked my father to accompany me. My father said: \”Look at your worthless appearance. Xiaohua is younger than you, but you dare to go there. I don\’t want to believe that you can fall into the pit.\” I couldn\’t express the frustration and low self-esteem I felt at that time. Since then, I have thought in my heart that when I grow up, I will never say such words to my own children. But since I became a mother, why am I so forgetful? Do you talk to your own child just like my father and mother did back then? Many people made a vow when they were children that they would never do anything when they became parents. But when I became a father and mother, I had long forgotten this. We keep repeating this tragedy. We often replace children\’s eyes with adults\’ eyes, their feelings with adults\’ feelings, and their goals with our goals. However, just like our elders, we keep saying \”We are doing this for your own good\” all day long, \”How selfless our love is\” and so on. We do not admit that our love is selfish, but in fact our love is so selfish. We still do things, think, and make judgments on behalf of our children autocratically, without any regard for the feelings of their young hearts. 【1】If you choose a playmate as a child, your parents must approve it.

Many things that children encounter actually require more listening, care and love from their parents. that\’s enough.
