She waited from dawn to dusk, but she didn't see her parents coming out to look for her. Yueyue finally understood that she really lost the love and attention of her parents because she failed in an exam.
She felt sad in her heart. When she was sitting by the flower bed, she was thinking that if her parents no longer loved her, could she go to her grandma?
Grandma is very fond of her. Grandma said that she is exactly the same as her mother when she was a child. However, her grandma is in the next city. After she and her grandfather retired, they could only come to spend time with them during the Chinese New Year every year.
Yueyue still remembers the city where her grandmother’s home is, and she also knows that she should go to the bus terminal when taking a bus.
She didn't know which subway route she should take at the bus terminal, but there were route maps in the subway stations, so she could definitely get to her grandma's house.
Yueyue fell asleep as she thought about it. She seemed to have a dream that her parents loved her and her brother very much.
Like other parents of children, they love her because she is Yueyue and her parents' child, not because of her grades or whether she is excellent.
In the dream, even if she is not the first, her mother will let her eat chicken legs and make fried fish for her.
She can drink milk tea and learn her favorite instrument, the flute, instead of the piano.
When Yueyue woke up, she found herself being held by her mother. She smelled the faint fragrance of her mother and closed her eyes. If this was also a dream, then she hoped she would never wake up.
Su Tang put her daughter on the bed, wiped her face, and then gently walked out of the room.
The husband was sitting on the sofa. When he saw Su Tang coming out, he said, "What she did was very wrong this time. We should educate her well..."
Li Changhe thought, if he learned to run away from home at such a young age, he would be able to do it again in the future. He couldn't figure out why his daughter would run away from home. It was obvious that he and his wife paid close attention to their children.
What reason could keep her from going home late at night?
Li Changhe couldn't understand, but he knew that his daughter was wrong. Since she was wrong, he must correct her mistake.
Seeing that his wife was silent, Li Changhe added, "All the teachers living around here are teachers from the Normal University. It would be embarrassing if my colleagues knew that my daughter had learned to run away from home and show off her temper at such a young age."
Li Changhe said a lot, but all he meant was that he must teach her a lesson.
When he stopped to drink water because he was thirsty, he realized that his wife had not spoken. He looked at her and asked doubtfully: "Why don't you express your opinion?"
Su Tang took a sip of water and then said, "I think there was something wrong with our previous education methods."
Without waiting for her husband to refute, he continued: "Look at the parents around you, are there any like us? There must be something wrong with us, that's why Yueyue hides outside and doesn't go home.
I first reflected on myself. I shouldn’t have hurt my child by saying those words yesterday. She is our daughter, and her grades should not be the criterion for judging whether we love her or not.
I think our previous educational philosophy was wrong and we should not only focus on children’s grades. "
"We always say that Dongdong is a scumbag, but although Dongdong didn't take first place in the exam before, he has always been in the top ten of his grade. Moreover, he has very good sports ability and can learn skateboarding, badminton, basketball and so on. We criticize Yueyue did not do well in the test this time. In fact, she only changed from first place to second place. Moreover, this was just a small test in their school and could not prove anything.
Yueyue has excellent grades and is very talented in music. Dongdong and Yueyue are both very good children. It is because we are not good parents and are not qualified parents that we make the children feel unhappy and depressed. "
Su Tang and her husband carefully analyzed their mistakes, but Li Changhe disagreed.
"Do you still remember who was the second place when you were studying? Don't you remember that everyone in this world is the same. Everyone only pays attention to the first place and the championship. No one sees the second or runner-up who are equally good. , so what’s wrong with asking children to get first place in the exam?”
"They can't do anything at this age. They can only study in life. If they can't even study well, what future can they have? What achievements can they achieve? It's not easy for you and me to get to where we are now. Do our children have to go back?"
Li Changhe didn't understand his wife. She thought she was frightened by her daughter's behavior today, so she softened her tone and said, "I know you were frightened by Yueyue, but you can't just be threatened by her.
We brought our child into this world and we have to be responsible for her. She doesn’t understand anything now. If we don’t guide her well, what should she do? "
"Tangtang, you shouldn't be so soft-hearted. Yueyue is your daughter. If you don't care about her studies and her life, then who else will care about her?"
Li Changhe earnestly persuaded his wife to unite with him. Anyway, he himself could not accept that his children were a failure in life.
"Yes, Dongdong and Yueyue are my children. If I don't care about them, who else will care about them? I was wrong before, but now I realize my mistake.
But you are still obsessed with it, you should reflect on it.
I read a social news today. A child committed suicide in the bathroom of her home after being admitted to a prestigious school. She was not rescued. She left a final letter before she died.
She said that she got into the school that her mother wanted, but this was not the path she wanted to choose. She was too tired, so she had no expectations for the world.
At that time, I was thinking whether Dongdong and Yueyue would also have this day. They were only in the second grade and we pushed them too hard. "
"I'm not saying that I want them to relax in their studies. I just think that I love them because they are my children. I shouldn't love them because they have good grades and can make me look good."
Seeing her husband's dazed expression, Su Tang knew that he had to catch the earliest high-speed train tomorrow to go to a training institution to earn money for classes. He had just been promoted to professor recently and was quite tired during this period, so she asked him to rest first. If anything happens, wait until he comes back. Say it again.
Li Changhe looked at the time. It was already one o'clock in the morning. He took the high-speed train at six o'clock in the morning, so he could only say: "I will consider your suggestion. When I come back, we will have a good talk about the education of my children."
Li Changhe has been subject to strict requirements from his parents since he was a child. Therefore, with today's achievements, he doesn't think there is anything wrong with using learning as a criterion to judge whether his children are excellent, because he has been doing this since he was a child.
He still remembers the shame of being punished by his parents to stand at the door when he didn't get first place in the general examination in the second grade of junior high school. At that time, he thought that he couldn't lag behind anyone else.
But when he was recommended to go to university and studied for a ., he discovered that there is a world out there and there are people out there. He is excellent, but there will always be someone better than him.
Thank you all for your votes and support!
