父母在教育孩子时,不光要注意孩子是否说谎,更要注意不能对孩子说谎。大多数父母对孩子撒谎是为了改变他们的行为,还有父母想要保护孩子远离真相。但有一些谎言最好不要对孩子说。
I remember the first time I realized my parents lied to me. It was after a little game. I made a mistake and lost the game. I was sad, but my mom told me I was the best player on the team. I knew it was untrue and it made me feel worse.
我记得我第一次意识到我的父母对我撒谎。那是在一场小游戏之后。我犯了一个错误,输掉了比赛。我很难过,但是我妈妈告诉我我是队里最好的球员。我知道这是不真实的,这让我感觉更糟。
Most parents lie to their kids. And most of these lies are innocent(无辜的) enough (They really do think their children are wonderful). However, there are lies that parents tell their kids that are not innocent. In fact, they can be dangerous. Here are 3 big lies we need to stop telling.
大多数父母对他们的孩子撒谎。大多数谎言都是无辜的。然而,有些谎言是父母告诉他们的孩子的,他们不是无辜的。事实上,它们可能是危险的。这里有三个大谎言,我们需要停止讲述。
1. “You deserve(值得) the best _______.”
1. “你应该得到最好的 _______。”
When we tell our kids “You deserve the best ______,” we suggest that when they face disappointment or hardship, the problem is in other people or the situation itself. But parents should know it’s much more important that our children become the kind of people who can “make the best” out of a less-than-perfect situation, rather than the kind who think they deserve the best.
当我们告诉我们的孩子 “你应该得到最好的 ______” 时,我们建议当他们面临失望或困难时,问题出在其他人或情况本身。但是父母应该知道,更重要的是,我们的孩子要成为那种能够在不太完美的情况下 “做到最好” 的人,而不是那种认为自己应该得到最好的人。
2. “You can be anything you want to be.”
2. “你可以成为任何你想成为的人。”
Most kids won’t grow up to be in the NBA or write a best seller. That’s just facts. The most important thing they can do is to discover who they are and how they’ve been gifted and then learn how to be the best version of themselves.
大多数孩子长大后不会进入NBA或写畅销书。那只是事实。他们能做的最重要的事情是发现他们是谁,他们是如何有天赋的,然后学习如何成为最好的自己。
3. “What other people say shouldn’t upset you.”
3. “别人说的话不应该让你难过。”
