WE MUST TEACH OUR CHILDREN TO THINK FOR THEMSELVES.
Today I want to ask parents and teachers to help children think for themselves.
If we help them to do everything we will be doing them a terrible harm.
What will happen when they grow up, and never learnt to think for themselves?
Children must be taught this, as it does not come by itself.
They must be taught to ask questions and try and find out what the truth is.
We must not just tell them the answer to something we must really try, and get them to work it out for by being inquisitive. That does not mean we want to bring up selfish children.
We want our children to remember to think of others, as they want others to think well of them.
If they learn to think for themselves they will be so much happier and will not have a lot of problems later in life.
When they grow up and they have not yet learnt to think for themselves they will feel sad and it will be our fault.
I am not saying do not be good to your children, what I am saying is help them to try and find out what is really important before you help them out.
I am putting a video in here with 3 children and how they think.
It is very good as there are different ways of looking at life and in this video it is so well explained.
You really want your child to be like the last little girl as she is really thinking for herself and considering other people in the process.
When we just help out all the time we are really taking their ability away to learn how to think.
I always say listen to your child and try and find out what they are asking. Maybe they do not know how to ask in the way they need.
This is when you ask them to try and explain in a different way. Then you might realise how much they need you to understand. Thinking children are smart children but they must learn not to just think of themselves.
They must learn to be considerate and then try and fix things in a way that makes everyone happy.
I hope you enjoyed my post and you agree with me as I really think we must teach our children to think for themselves.
I hope you have a wonderful day and be blessed with wonderful thinking children.
Thank you for sharing this @bigbear. I agree. When we teach children to think for themselves, it will help develop their understanding skill and be independent.
Agreed. This will help
Them learn to give and take and
Be independent.

I am so glad you feel like I do they really need our help to become good people, if they do not it will be our fault as we have to be a very good example.
Thank you for reading, this is so important to make our children independent the right way.
Awesome video dear.
Though it should be curtailed sometimes, allowing children to play whenever they like is a way for children to think for themselves because it strengthens their ability to decide what to play and how to do it and I also believe that when children see their parents make good choices, they learn from it
This is very true, I agree with you, and parents should always be a good example to their children that is the way to teach them.
Yes ma'am.. Because some parents fail to see that they are role models to there children..
Thanks for sharing.
The peace is become from learning children , i'm sorry but there are more things wrong in our mind , there are things are made our in sad life , why ? we harm by bad words and bad doing we are human , we can learn our children in school by governments things is no good in old people more things because that the world is no safe .... thank u for sharing this post i hope for u nice life :)
Exactly sometimes that's what they need. It will surely help them grow and progress on a personal level
Every child's thoughts are different. All children have to learn differently.
Yap absolutely right... We must teach our children to think about themselves... They can't accelerate without thinking about themselves...
Every child is like pearl from the sea that grow and learn differently. As parents, we have to go down to his level instead of bringing him to our levels. Because we have experienced to be a child who always asked to be loved and to be understood.
Thanks for your good sharing.
That is so very true, we want to keep our children for as long as possible to be children and enjoy their childhood as it is only a very short time that they can be children.
