To teach the beauties of life you don’t need screams, oaths or hard gestures, you don’t have to suffer to know the taste of joy, otherwise happiness will seem like an unattainable star to you.
It is possible that his childhood was a stage marked by an authoritarian and severe upbringing. If so, you will know from experience that far from getting a good learning, what was probably left was the imprint of many emotional needs, lack of cainho and lack of recognition.
- Educating is a woven art with affections.
- Emotions and subtle intelligence that understands that teaching is learning twice and learning should always be a pleasure.
Some like to say that “the best teaching comes through suffering. “In fact, this idea is a bit extreme and cannot be applied as a rule, it certainly teaches us the value of certain aspects, offers us strategies and often shows us which path to take and which to avoid.
Now, life learning occurs through time and experience, but if we start from a safe foundation, that is, we start from a healthy childhood, in which we know what it means to build strong and happy bonds, we will have a good path. . Teaching is not just conveying knowledge and guidelines. There is no need to teach to suffer, nor to receive tears and repressed: to teach is to educate emotions to be strong in life.
Of course, none of us have the magic potion to give our children true and lasting happiness. However, one thing we must not forget is that to educate, it is necessary to understand, intuitively and above all “Build”.
Happiness, respect and joy are also key to learning about life, because they teach us to be strong, because they make us understand why it is worth fighting and, above all, preserve.
Those who have not experienced happiness in childhood cannot see life without suspicion and without fear, suffering in the first years of life, far from teaching, limits the good development of the child, that is something to consider.
We often try to teach children concepts they can find in books, on the Internet, that certainly won’t come in handy tomorrow. Do we need to focus on teaching them to love, to be free, to think, to know each one?Other?
It will be of little use to educate children in math or geography, if we don’t let them be happy before, to learn what empathy is or how to cope with their moments of anger or sadness.
In fact, it is something that we must take into account every day through strategies like this, although it is much easier to teach them the multiplication table than to develop their self-esteem:
Always educate about the joy of living, using the positive reinforcement and closeness of those who understand, those who protect and, at the same time, promote independence, maturity and happiness.
