There is an Indian proverb: "When a child is young, give him deep roots; when he grows up, give him wings." This means that a person's character must be developed from an early age. Not only will the growth path be smoother,

It is bound to develop in a positive direction in the future.

But you know what character is?

What are the indicators to follow?

What should parents help their children achieve?

Today's society is full of news events that distort values ??and moral decay. People can't help but wonder if there is something wrong with education?

How should we proceed to correct the unhealthy trends in society?

The endless chaos in today's society actually reflects people's wrong values ????and the lack of correct moral standards. As a result, these criminal incidents occur and justice cannot be served. Pan Lihua, CEO of the Chiyo Cultural and Educational Foundation, suggested that we should start with education, and

The origin of education lies in the family. Therefore, in addition to the responsibilities of giving birth and raising children, parents also shoulder the heavy responsibility of education. In particular, they must establish good character in their children so that they can develop soundly both physically and mentally and grow up safely and healthily.

During her career in early childhood education, she deeply realized the importance of character education in children's early years. As the saying goes, "Look at the elders at the age of 3 and the old at the age of 6." If a person can get a proper and good upbringing environment when he is young,

, obtain sound physical and mental development, and naturally be able to adapt to the needs of society when they grow up.

In fact, social chaos depends on personality development issues. In addition to protecting children's health from harm, parents must also take into account their mental state. Character education must be provided from infancy to shaping a sound personality.

The importance of character education. In 1992, the International Alliance for Character Education resolved to establish six pillars of character, including respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, trustworthiness and citizenship.

, as the basic qualities that modern citizens should cultivate, and emphasizes that if people want to have a truly democratic society, they must establish an ethical foundation so that individuals can grow healthily.

Lin Shufen, director of the clinical department of Youyuan Social Welfare Foundation, pointed out that people live in a group society, and everyone hopes to get along better with each other, and even enable the country and the world to live in a relatively peaceful and beautiful world. International character

The six major indicators listed by the Education Alliance are expected to start from individuals, starting from understanding themselves, respecting themselves, and developing themselves, and then further caring for others and making contributions to society and even the world.

Starting from pregnancy, character education is a very important education. Parents have the obligation to educate their children so that they can develop well.

CEO Pan Lihua added that character education should begin when the mother is pregnant. In other words, during the pregnancy, both parents must maintain a healthy and happy mood and provide more good prenatal education, including speaking and listening to the fetus.

Soft music, no tantrums, etc. After the child is born, he will naturally feel familiar with these beautiful people, things, and things, and he will also have a more stable mood.

As children grow up, parents should provide them with a warm and caring environment, and talk and interact with them more. Even if infants and young children cannot express themselves yet, they can still learn through what they see with their eyes, hear with their ears, and feel with their bodies.

He knows how much his parents care for him.

Director Lin Shufen further explained that parents may wish to use the age of 3 as a watershed. Most children before the age of 3 are in the stage of babbling and learning life, and do not yet have basic living abilities. At this time, parents mainly focus on modeling correct character behavior.

Lead by example in everything, so that children can know and be exposed to correct behaviors from an early age. Children can gradually receive character education starting from the age of 3, because they already have basic language skills and understand most daily behaviors.

However, before educating their children, parents should have a basic understanding, that is, "no child wants to do bad things, and no child wants to hurt their parents' hearts." When children do something wrong, don't scold them without knowing it, but understand first.

The reasons behind it, and then provide correct guidance.

In addition, parents should also first understand their children's development process, including physical and motor development, intellectual development, language development, etc., and then provide corresponding education based on their children's understanding. If parents judge based on their age or even adult moral and character standards,

Behavior not only easily causes children to deny themselves, but may also stifle opportunities for learning and growth.

Cognitive Early Childhood Development Director Lin Shufen emphasized that people have three functions: "id", "superego" and "ego". When children can appropriately meet the needs of the id and meet the requirements of the superego, they can develop good

self-function.
