The female protagonist of Xiuxian gave birth to many children

I believe that young people today often have disagreements with the elderly over the issue of raising children. Parents always like to say, "Didn't the older generation still raise so many children?" In response to this, young people have a lot of suggestions to express.

After all, today's era of rapid development is different from the past. Even adults can hardly keep up with the pace of the times, and the way of raising children is even more different from the past. We have to speak with data and information and draw conclusions based on objective facts. If you agree with this saying, then you must understand the following 5 "truths".

1. Specific circumstances of “raising children in the past”

1. It is not easy to be born, and it is even harder to live. Imagine in the past a family had 7 or 8 children, not including those who died at birth. Although it is not difficult to give birth to a baby, the midwife only needs to use scissors to cut the umbilical cord of the fetus. But except for the rich, ordinary people simply cannot afford to have so many children. Therefore, they had to let the children help with farm work, which was hard for the older children because they had to take care of their nephews and sister after finishing the farm work. The diet is mainly based on whole grains and wild fruits. Long-term lack of meat supplement will cause various physical diseases, and even many people will starve to death. Therefore, in previous eras, those who could survive were those with strong luck.

2. There are too many children and their quality is poor. In the past, although people had many children, most of them had no cultural level, and some did not even attend primary school. In the early days of national liberation, basically 80 percent of the people could not read or write, and they might not even have difficulty writing. The situation is incomparable to today. In the Internet age, if many people are not good at computer operation, they will be made fun of, let alone recognizing words? Therefore, the older generation does not have to blindly follow the trend of inducing labor, but should pay attention to the education of their children.

3. Cultural education methods are too outdated. In the past, parents only paid attention to their children’s physical condition. As long as there was no physical problem, they thought they were OK. But in fact, children in the past just had to make do with food, clothing, shelter and life. They were not afraid to show what they wanted on their faces and only did what their parents asked them to do. Such children have neither individuality nor the ability to think, and it is impossible for them to achieve anything great. In the past, children's mental problems could not be taken care of. Just making a living was very exhausting, and parents did not have much time to pay attention to and educate their children.

2. The real ideas of today’s young people

1. The new era brings a new lifestyle. Compared with children in the past, today's children have stronger physical and intellectual development, which requires new ways of parenting and education. But we cannot completely deny the past. We have to say that today's children are a little more delicate and not as simple as those in the past. Therefore, what we need to do more in the new era is to abandon the outdated ideas and methods of the past and educate children with independent and innovative methods.

2. Treat the problem with a critical eye. Even the current living standards and education levels are much better than before. However, some things cannot be changed by time, such as the love, hope and responsibility that parents have for their children. No matter how many standards there are nowadays, we should not forget these excellent qualities that should be inherited the most. We should work together with the elderly to offer each other advice and suggestions on educating children so that our next generation can go further.
