m**k 发帖数: 18660 | 1 呵呵。现在推父母很多,都怕小孩输在起跑线上啊。
很多情况就把所谓的小孩一生比喻成长跑,或者马拉松。
结论是开始快点慢点其实无所谓,毕竟长跑/马拉松靠的是耐力。
作为一个runners,加上一个父亲,说说我的想法(以前写过一篇, 现在可能有些新的)
首先,比喻成长跑,没有说是训练,还是比赛。我姑且猜测是马拉松比赛吧。
[目的] 马拉松比赛的目的是啥,大多数人是跑出自己的最好.而不是赢这个比赛,
personal best, 就是在你身体的心理的当时状况,跑出最短的时间.当然也基于
你的伤病情况,也基于你的训练,你的taper carb-loading.
当然也有人跑马拉松不是为了图个PB, 的确是图个fun. 甚至不去求个PB.
小孩成长或许类似, 有的希望获得最好最成功. 有的希望更多fun.这个目的差别也挺大
的.
当然没有人希望 人生 的时间最短..(这样可能给跳级一个负面的意思). hoho.
[准备] 马拉松比赛,其实重点不是比赛本身,而是训练和准备,比赛可能2小时4小时,但是
训练往往要几个月甚至几年.而小孩成长,有这个训练准备的过程么? 怀胎10月?或者父
母\
自己的上进,身体,事业家庭? 但是那也远比不上平时训练和比赛的相关性强啊.毕竟
一个是别人的一个是自己的. 这样说来,其实养小孩其实不是只是比赛,而是训练加比赛
??
[起跑] 对大多数人来说,起跑的姿势速度,不重要,甚至在什么corral都关系不大,毕竟你
有你的chip,你和你自己比,虽然corral不好,你开始需要zigzag. 的确马拉松开始不能就
冲刺。而且开始的几秒钟并不重要。如果小孩的确有潜力,有个好的开始也是重要,
不是说开始需要冲刺,但是你需要一个适合你的pace.不然开始就消耗很多无用体力在
摆脱那些比你慢的人.
[pace] 但是说回来,怎么定pace, 比赛的时候,因为有以前的训练,还有其他比赛的
经验,这样你比赛前就定下个pace了.但是小孩,可就不好说了,毕竟每个小孩都不一样
你怎么知道他到一定年龄应该到什么pace? 当然如果把过程想象成训练,就make点
sense.
就是trial & error慢慢摸清小孩的pace.也让他自己决定.
当然,马拉松比赛可以跑很多次,而人生不能re-try. |

w****1 发帖数: 4931 | 14 This is bullshit. You don't fucking demand a better birthday card from your
kid. That is just an amazingly
selfish act. Most Chinese parents want the kid to think that they owe the
parents. My view, which is also the
typical American view, is that my kid doesn't owe me anything, and it is my
responsibility to take care of and
guide my kid before she's 18. After that, she's on her own. I want my
daughter to grow up a happy and loving
person, and to have a good relationship with the family. What kind of career
she would have is her own
business.

fine with me. I would help her by SENDing her to a good school, instead of forcing her to study just so that

What my kid accomplishes in her life is her business. I'd be proud but I wouldn't treat it like my own

important than her going to Harvard or making million dollar salary. Going to a top university isn't my idea of

e*e 发帖数: 6808 | 28 虽然我同意你的一些观察,但是我觉得你对中国父母也有点片面
是有些父母觉得养育儿女是一种investment,但是很多并不是。他们也许不能理解
personal choice,他们对子女的期望也许很世俗,很judgemental。但是并不是因为他
们觉得子女是投资,子女的成就是回报。他们也只是希望子女过得“好”,按照他们理
解的好。
这点上,我们不用照听,但是需要appreciate。
至少我的父母和我的inlaws都是这样的。

w****1 发帖数: 4931 | 75 Speaking of hardship, I just had dinner at an Indian kid's home. The kid is a sophomore in a college in
Mumbai, works 4 hours a day to make money, lives with his mom and a 10 yr old brother. His mother
doesn't speak English. Their home is the size of a small studio in the US. The hygiene condition is poor,
and I had to secretly take a cipro pill after the dinner. The kid is brilliant, comparable to the very best
undergraduates at Harvard. About the only thing he posses is a shelf full of books. Physics and math books,
quantum mechanics, QFT, Jackson, Landau Lifshitz. He practically raises himself and attends graduate
courses at the very best research institute in India. He was never pushed by his mother. It is all self driven.
Hard as life is right now, he's got a great future. Now that is what I respect.
While India is significantly poorer (and filthier) than China, I have found the poor people in India to be living
pleasant lives. The kid I just mentioned has always been cheerful and never complained to me about the
hardship of life. Their living condition is shockingly poor and congested even by Chinese standard. It was in
striking contrast with my trip in China just weeks ago, where the regular people are grumpy and full of
complaints. Some guy in Shanghai train station who carried my luggage just told me straight that he was
proud of me and that his life is fucked and people like him had no future. It strikes me that many Chinese
people are missing the priorities. Is it more important to make money and show off, or is it more important
to be simply happy?

s*********t 发帖数: 89 | 82 Are you telling this story to give some point? If you are, I might have
missed your point. From previous replies,I kind of know that you are a
brilliant self-driven person and the Indian guy is just you in the mirror.
On the other hand, maybe I am wrong, I guess you had a much better economic
situation than he does. The Indian undergraduate doesn't need pushing
parents because the environment is doing the job and you don't even know for
sure if the mother has pushed him or not. But the pressure from life alone
is enough for him to be a self-driven person. What I want to say is that
either the environments push the children later or the parents push the
children earlier. Of course, there is always an issue of the quantity of
push. Different person has different necessary quantity of push. A little
push might work well for you but might work badly for another person. Some
persons are born to have good self-control and others may not have any good
self-control. These things are complicated, not as simple as you think, “ok
, it didn’t work for me since it made me unhappy and angry, then it is bad.
” There are some ppl like you complaining too much push and there are also
some ppl complaining later there was not enough push when they were young.
Anyway, I personally think push doesn’t completely determine whether the
children are happy or not, which seems to concern very much to your
philosophy. If you want your children to be happy, I guess the best way will
be to teach them to be always optimistic and to always see good sides of
things. Without optimism being taught, both pushing and not-pushing parents
are probably going to fail in making their children happy sooner or later
because life is not always there to please ppl. It is always easier to say
than do, maybe optimism is just something more likely to be a born quality.
About the Chinese guy, don’t blame him on pursuing money. You should be
sorry for him, because he has grown up in the environment which didn’t
foster his noble goals from your point of view. Again, each person’s
priority is different and money sometimes is just the way to realize his
priority. Even among non-Chinese, there are also ppl who are pursuing money.
Why Chinese ppl are caring so much about money, I guess it is because they
were extremely poor before. After the economic blooming, hope the revival of
Chinese Civilization is at the corner we can see.

b*********a 发帖数: 1145 | 85 Agree, there are a lot which a typical Chinese parent don't understand. Not
only Indian, some American is also beyond their understanding.
When I was at school, most of my classmates are American, lots of them left
a lucrative career and change to our major(which is far from lucrative at
all),and some of our professors used to have a very lucrative job too. But
these people are happy, because they are not chasing money, i guess most
Chinese parents can't understand. But those are all great persons, and I
admire them a lot.Some of them look weird in other people's eyes. If a
Chinese parent got a kid like that they would go crazy lol. But they are far
better than most superficial and snobbish people in this world.
