Help Children to Be Independent

Today in China, many families have only one child. So the children usually doted upon by all family members. Gradually some of them get used to depending on their parents and lack the ability to solve problems independently.

There are some ways to help children to be independent. Firstly, the child should have a chance to see the world around him. He must understand that therere various competitions in this world, and everyone can find his right position in the society only by individual efforts. Secondly, the parents should give the child enough help to make him feel comfortable. It's impossible to ask a child not to depend on parents at once. A child needs help from the beginning. Without any help, the child may lose his faith. Thirdly, parents should let his child make decisions, which can temper his ability to deal with problems. A child should be praised when he is successful or when he fails.

To be independent is good for the children, because no parents can accompany the children for the whole life. It is the child himself who is responsible for her own fate. Only an independent person can live and succeed in this world.

帮助孩子独立起来

现今的中国，很多家庭都是独生子女家庭。所以孩子受到了所有家庭成员的宠爱。渐渐地他们习惯了依赖父母，缺乏了独立解决问题的能力。

有一些方法可以帮助孩子独立起来。第一，孩子应该有机会认识身边的世界。他必须知道世界上有各种各样的竞争，只有通过个人的努力才能找到自己的位置。第二，父母应该给他们提供帮助。开始的时候孩子都需要帮助，离开了父母的帮助他们会失去方向。第三，父母应该让孩子做决定，以此来锻炼他们处理问题的能力。当孩子成功或失败时他们都需要鼓励。

独立对于孩子是有利的。因为父母不能陪伴他们一辈子。他们要对自己的命运负责。只有独立的人才能够在这世界生存并取得成功。
