問題詳情
第二篇: Now, I suspect, a lot of people are experiencing a kind of parents' remorse. We bought into the philosophy thatchildren needed unlimited self-esteem, maximum freedom and minimal pressure to succeed in life or contribute tosociety. We taught our kids to think of themselves as entitled and to see themselves as the center of the universe. Nowinstead of parents having expectations of their children, children have expectations of how their parents are supposedto behave. We're here to serve them, to make their lives as comfortable and convenient as possible. I want my children to stop acting like an only child, and learn to share everything with their siblings, includingtheir parents' time and attention. I want them to get out of their heads this idea that the world revolves around them,and all that matters at any given moment of the day is what they want, need or feel; and I want them to treat peoplebetter, starting with their family members, and then moving on to complete strangers, and not look down on anyone --ever. Of course, the problem is that this is what parents are for. It's our job to instill these values and teach childrenhow to become good people. It doesn't happen naturally. And it won't happen magically. It'll only happen if we setstandards and enforce rules when they're not met. And fathers have a special role to play in all of this. It's not easybeing a good dad. In fact, it's exhausting. And it can often be frustrating. In fact, frankly, a lot of fathers decide it is toohard. They give up, check out, hang back and essentially let their kids raise themselves. It's one of the reasons why wegot into this mess. The only way out is for fathers to get back in the game. We have to be present in our children's lives. Forgetabout being their friends. They have friends. They need fathers. We have to be in our kids' faces, just like ourgrandfathers and fathers used to be. And for the same reason -- because we care enough not to be anywhere else.
