发帖数: 25262 | 47 别让爱成为孩子的负担
戴维·布鲁克斯
如今的育儿有两大关键特征。第一，现在的孩子得到空前多的夸赞。桃乐丝·帕克(
Dorothy Parker)曾经开玩笑说，美国的孩子不是抚养大的，是激励大的。他们得到了
饮食、庇护与喝彩。这话在今天更是无比正确。人们不断对孩子说他们如何如何特别。
第二个关键特征是孩子受到了前所未有的锻造磨砺。在精英体制下，竞争空前激烈。父
母比以往更担心孩子能否进入优秀大学，踏上职场坦途。比起以前几代人，现在的父母
会花更多的时间对孩子的技能和履历进行投入，开车送他们去训练和排练。
这两大倾向——更多的夸赞和更多的磨砺——是紧密结合的。孩子沉溺在爱中，但那爱
是有指向的。父母向孩子倾注无限的感情，但那是精英至上的感情。其中掺杂着帮助孩
子取得世俗成功的欲望。
而这时常会表现为操纵欲。父母无意中用他们的微笑和皱眉作了向导，让孩子往他们认
为可以通往成功的行为发展。孩子努力学习、训练、得第一名、进入名牌大学，会让父
母心中充满欣喜。
