Memo From A Child To Parents

1. Don't spoil me. I know quite well that I ought not to have all I ask for. I'm only testing you.

2. Don't be afraid to be firm with me. I prefer it, it makes me feel secure.

3. Don't let me form bad habits. I have to rely on you to detect them in the early stages.

4. Don't make me feel smaller than I am. It only makes me behave stupidly "big".

5. Don't correct me in front of people if you can help it. I'll take much more notice if you talk quietly with me in private.

6. Don't make me feel that my mistakes are sins. It upsets my sense of values.

7. Don't protect me from consequences. I need to learn the painful way sometimes.

8. Don't be too upset when I say "I hate you". Sometimes it isn't you I hate but your power to thwart me.

9. Don't take too much notice of my small ailments. Sometimes they get me the attention I need.

10. Don't nag. If you do, I shall have to protect myself by appearing deaf.

11. Don't forget that I cannot explain myself as well as I should like. That is why I am not always accurate.

12. Don't put me off when I ask questions. If you do, you will find that I stop asking and seek my information elsewhere.

13. Don't be inconsistent. That completely confuses me and makes me lose faith in you.

14. Don't tell me my fears are silly. They are terribly real and you can do much to reassure me if you try to understand.

15. Don't ever suggest that you are perfect or infallible. It gives me too great a shock when I discover that you are neither.

16. Don't ever think that it is beneath your dignity to apologize to me. An honest apology makes me feel surprisingly warm towards you.

17. Don't forget I love experimenting. I couldn't get along without it, so please put up with it.

18. Don't forget how quickly I am growing up. It must be very difficult for you to keep pace with me, but please do try.

19. Don't forget that I don't thrive without lots of love and understanding, but I don't need to tell you, do I?

20. Please keep yourself fit and healthy. I need you.

孩子給爸爸媽媽的備忘錄

1. 不要嬌慣我。我知道的非常清楚，不是我要什么就該得到什么的。有時我只是在試探你。

2. 不要害怕在我面前堅持你的立場。我其實更喜歡你這樣，因為這使我有安全感。

3. 不要讓我養(yǎng)成壞毛病。只有你才能在把它們消滅在萌芽狀態(tài)。

4. 不要讓我感覺自己比實際要小，那樣只能使我愚蠢地去充“大”個。

5. 如果有可能，不要當眾教訓我。如果你在私下悄悄跟我說，我會更加注意的。

6. 不要讓我感覺自己犯的錯誤就像犯了罪一樣，那只能搞亂我的價值觀。

7. 不要阻止我承擔后果，有時我需要從教訓中學習。

8. 當我說“我恨你”時，不要生氣。有時我恨的不是你，我恨的只是你那令我感到很渺小的權(quán)威。

9. 我得了小病時，不要太在意我。有時生病可以使我得到我所需要的關(guān)注。

10. 不要啰啰嗦嗦的。如果你那樣的話，我只能通過裝聾作啞來保護自己。

11. 不要忘記，有時我會詞不達意。這也是為什么我有時不能準確地表達自己。

12. 當我問問題時，不要不耐煩。否則，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)我不再問你問題，而是從別的地方尋找答案。

13. 不要出爾反爾，這樣只能是我疑惑，并對你失去信任。

14. 不要對我說我的恐懼是可笑的。它們是真真實實的，如果你能理解我，你就能更好地安慰我。

15. 永遠不要暗示你是完美的和不會犯錯誤的。否則當我發(fā)現(xiàn)事實與此相反時，我會感到很震驚的。

16. 永遠不要認為向我道歉有損你的尊嚴。一個誠實的道歉會使我感到溫暖并加深我們的感情。

17. 不要忘了我喜歡嘗試。如果我不嘗試就寸步難行，所以請你包容。

18. 不要忘了我長得很快。你肯定覺得與我俱進非常困難，但是還是請你努力去做。

19. 不要忘了離開了厚愛和理解我不會茁壯成長，但是，這一點我不需要提醒你把？

20. 請保持身體健康，因為我需要你。
