美国纽约儿童家教中心曾对400名少年从14岁开始跟踪调查他们的生活工作情况,直到他们47岁为止。结果发现,那些在孩童期间,便已参与家务工作,或者在青少年期间从事各类零星工作的人,在到达成年期时。各方面的表现都相当成功。在职业方面,大多数获得较好成绩;在生活上,对家庭、婚姻及人际关系方面的处理.都有较佳的表现,而且生活也较愉快。而那些小时候在家庭内外都未承担任何工作的人,却较易出现心理及精神上不健全的问题,在工作或事业方面的表现也较差,甚至在日常生活中易出现某些不良行为。因此,儿童在任何年龄期间,假如能够获得参与各类工作的机会,在身心方面都会获得益处。事实上,儿童和成人一样,都希望能够从劳动中去体现自我的重要性。他们会从各种工作中,发现自我价值,不论是琐碎的家庭事务,还是成年人认为无足轻重的工作。如若能给他们参与的机会,将会使他们日后的性格成长发展过程更完美,生活更快乐,也更富创造性。父母对子女过分溺爱,让他们过分养尊处优,对孩子健康成长不一定有利。——天戈 The New York Children and Tutoring Center conducted a survey of 400 young people from the age of 14 until they were 47 years of age. As a result, those who have been involved in housework during their childhood, or engaged in various types of sporadic work during adolescence, have reached the adulthood. All aspects of the performance are quite successful. Most of them have achieved good grades in their profession and have better performance in family life, marriage and interpersonal relationship in life, and have a better life. However, those who did not undertake any work in or outside their home during their childhood were more likely to experience psychological and mental problems, they also had poor performance in work or career, and they even experienced some bad behaviors in daily life. Therefore, at any age, children benefit both physically and mentally if they have the opportunity to participate in all kinds of work. In fact, children, like adults, want to embody the importance of self from work. They find self-worth from a variety of jobs, be they trivial family matters or adults deemed insignificant jobs. If you can give them the opportunity to participate, will make their future character growth and development more perfect, more happy life, but also more creative. Parents excessive spoiled their children, so that they are over-pampered, not conducive to the healthy growth of children. - Ge days
