Parents And Children Quotes

“راه پر بار ساختن زندگی و شخصیت افراد این نیست که همان گونه که همیشه عواطف مردان را تقلیل داده و ناقص کرده اند،عواطف زنان را مهار سازیم و کاهش دهیم، یا از بیان آزادانه ی آن ها جلوگیری کنیم ( به عنوان مثال، مرد نباید اندوهگین یا متأثر شود، گریه کند، نومید گردد). برای بهبود زندگی دختربچه ها نباید آنان را به رقابت جویی با پسرها و تقلید از آنان وا داریم بلکه باید به گزینش یکایک افراد، مستقل از جنس آنان، احترام بگذاریم و یاری برسانیم، و الگوهای متنوع تری را به کودکان عرضه کنیم، الگوهایی که از کلیشه های مسلط هر چه بیشتری رها شده اند و شکوفایی و ابراز وجود افراد را ممکن می سازند: کودکان بدین ترتیب می توانند استعدادها و شخصیت خود را هرچه کامل تر شکوفا سازند، بی آن که مجبور باشند جنبه هایی از وجود خود را قربانی کنند که ارزشی گران قدر دارد.”

“وسعت عشق پدر و مادر در نظر یک بچه غیر قابل اندازه گیری است. ولی این مسئله معنایش این نیست که شما نباید سعی کنید عشقتان را برایش توضیح دهید.”

“پذیرش شرایط یا وظایف جدید لزوما معنایش این نیست که تو همیشه این شرایط را دوست داری یا می خواهی همیشه آن وظایف را انجام دهی.”

“بنابراین در ظاهر، به نظر می رسد مردم عصر ویکتوریا نه تنها کودکی را ابداع نکردند بلکه آن را از بین بردند. اما در واقع مسئله پیچیده تر از این بود. والدین عصر ویکتوریا با دریغ محبت از کودکان در دوره ی کودکی و بعد با تلاش برای کنترل رفتار آنان حتی تا بزرگسالی،در این موقعیت بسیار عجیب قرار داشتند که در همان شرایطی که می کوشیدند جلوی کودکی را بگیرند تلاش داشتند کاری کنند تا همیشه دوام داشته باشد. شاید تعجب آور نباشد که پایان عصر ویکتوریا تقریبا دقیقا با ابداع روانکاوی همزمان شد.”

“از نظر من خنده و گریه ی کودک یک اندازه ارزش دارد. من هرگز نخواهم خواست از یک کودک مواهبی مانند رنجش و غم و غصه را بگیرم. عواطف بشری شخصیت انسان را رشد می دهد. هر چه عواطف ما عمیق تر شود، انسان تر می شویم.”

“Every child should be nurture with great love. The feeling of great love promotes wellness and potential for greatness.”

“Never attempt to cover true feelings. Don't expect it from your children and don't expect it from other adults. There are no right feelings and no wrong feelings. To be human, one must feel the full range of emotions, not just preferred ones, not just tolerated ones. Do not raise your children feeling like they need to fight for the freedom to feel.”

“Mon temps autrefois m'appartenait entièrement, et aux livres. Aujourd'hui, chaque minute consacrée à lire ou à écrire est une minute que je ne passe pas avec ma fille; l'écriture s'accompagne désormais d'une hâte et d'une culpabilité détestables. C'est du temps que je lui dérobe, que je ne retrouverai pas, que j'aurais dû lui consacrer et que je n'aurai jamais passé avec elle. Depuis sa naissance, je me prends à penser au futur antérieur et au conditionnel passé, des temps compliqués qui sont le signe qu'on considère les choses sous un point de vue autre que celui depuis lequel on parle normalement : demain vu au passé, hier comme une possibilité. Elle dort. Je devrais profiter de ce moment pour écrire, je n'arrive qu'à m'abîmer dans le bruit des vagues. Je voudrais m'étendre sur le sable, rester là jusqu'à la nuit, me laisser emporter par la marée.”

“Only allowing affirmation indicates that a child’s feelings are facts, and we believe that feelings, which are often transient, are not facts. One may hold respect and empathy for those suffering from gender confusion and still say no to a destructive ideology that advocates the medicalization of kids.”

“Everyone involved in our children’s transition failed to adequately address or treat the full range of each child’s complex personality and history. The affirmation care model and those involved in it also failed to preserve the precious parent-child bond.”

“[THE DAILY BREATH] Do you remember the first day of school, when your mom and dad gave you the new uniform, the shiny shoes and a little lunch box with fresh food made that morning? The mystery of your relationship with our Heavenly Father is mirrored in your relationship with your children. For the first 5-6 years of your life, you never asked nor worried about your school uniform, the shoes you will wear or the lunch box for the first day of school. Probably you didn't even know you needed them before school started and you did get them. Your parents knew you needed them, and when the moment arrived, you received them. You didn't get them before or after, but when the moment of need arrived. You might understand now what our Heavenly Father meant when He said: "I will answer them before they even call to me. While they are still talking about their needs, I will go ahead and answer their prayers." Jesus reaffirmed this message when He said: "Your Father knows you need all these even before you even ask Him." Do not worry about the future. There is perfect peace in this moment. Do not worry. Today only remember and trust your Heavenly parent, the One who breathed life into your body and spirit. He will give you all you need. When the moment arrives.”

“Actually, they were very strange parents,' I told her. 'Neither of them were what you might call conventional people. And they had an extremely peculiar approach to parenting. Sometimes I felt as if I were little more than a tenant in their house, as if they weren't entirely sure what I was doing there. But they never mistreated me, nor did they ever do anything to hurt me. And perhaps they loved me in their own way. The concept itself might have been slightly alien to them.' 'And did you love them?' 'Yes, I did,' I said without hesitation. 'I loved them both very much. Despite everything. But then children usually do. They look for safety and security, and one way or another Charles and Maude provided that.' (p. 556)”

“An outsider's inquisitiveness to know another's private affairs is natural, but not so in children with respect to their parents. Children know the overt personal life of their parents. It is a crime for children to probe into mistakes made by their parents, like detectives looking for evidence of crimes. Any man can make mistakes, however good he may be. It is wrong for children to inquisitively probe into their parents' lives, and have fun or show anger over what they uncover. It is like digging into the heads of ancient statues in search of archaeological artefacts. Nanda spoke with anger.”

“Her heart filled with boundless love that surged anew for her father. She felt like rushing to him and planting a quick kiss on his cheek the way she used to when she was a small girl. However, these villagers are not in the habit of kissing their offspring after they grow up. They show their love and affection by stroking their heads, addressing them in endearing words and blessing them.”

“Children who are accustomed to being treated well internalize that treatment and have a permanent sense of well-being. But children whose every need is instantly gratified and who are constantly praised to the skies do not have the same sense of well-being; rather they may feel despair or rage when that gratification is withheld, or when everyone doesn't glorify them in the same way.”

“Be careful of how you discuss money in front of your children. Never speak of household finances in terms of lack or scarcity in front of your kids. Only speak of household finances in terms of goals and wealth in front of your kids. Your discussions about money will either enrich them with wealth consciousness or cripple them with poverty consciousness.”

“....the shadow across her face made her look demonic. Lady Baynard found a sick rhythm in the act....There was nothing human in her expression, just unbridled malice. Each lash was more than violence -- it was her revenge against everything she couldn't control.: Lafayette's drunken ineptitude, her lack of true status, the grasping at power that was just out of reach.”

“When I got my first Broadway gig, I called home to tell my mama the news. She said sh always knew I'd be a big star and hung up the phone. She didn't even give me the chance to tell her how much that meant to me. Years later, my sister Robin told me that, after the call, Mama told them I'd be home before I could blink twice.”
