1920年,一个11岁的美国男孩踢足球损坏了邻家一块大玻璃,邻居要求赔偿12.5美元,这笔钱当时可以买125只母鸡,对他来说简直是个“天文数字”。他的父亲说:“钱可以借给你,但一年后要还清!”此后,他开始了艰苦的打工生活,终于把12.5美元还给了父亲。这个男孩就是后来的美国总统里根。他回忆这件事时说,通过自己的劳动我懂得了什么叫责任。保护孩子是父母的本能,如果父母一味地代替孩子承担责任,就会埋下错误重犯的隐患。孩子犯错的时候是教育孩子的最佳时机,让孩子承担一定的责任可以教会他们明 In 1920, an eleven-year-old American boy who played soccer damaged his neighbor’s big glass and his neighbor had asked for compensation of $ 12.5. The money was enough to buy 125 hens, which was an “astronomical” figure for him. His father said: “Money can be lent to you, but you have to pay it one year later!” He started a hard working life and finally returned $ 12.5 to his father. This boy is the later US President Reagan. When he recalled the incident, he said I learned what it means to be responsible through my own work. Protecting children is the parents’ instinct. If parents blindly assume responsibility for their children, they will lay hidden dangers of mistakes. When children make mistakes is the best time to educate their children, let the children take a certain responsibility to teach them Ming
