写在孩子17周儿童节之际

翻开日历，猛然醒悟，你已经在你妈的肚中17周了，也就是四个多月了。还需要一倍多的时间，即将睁眼看到这个世界了啊。

对我自己家庭的家教深有体会，对其他家庭的也有一些感触，曾经总想写点什么总结以后怎么教育、培养你，国内家庭大背景之下，给小孩子不能承受之重，也有过放羊式任你天马行空的想法，但又怕对不起你的未来。

在这六一儿童节来临之际，看到朋友圈一位友人的分享，很有深意，也表达出我所想的。英文抄袭如下，图片随后。

On Children

And a woman who held a baby against her bosom said, speak to us of children.

And he said:

Your children are not your children.

They are sons and daughters of LIFE's longing for itself.

They come through you, but not from you.

And though they are with you, yet they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts, for they have their own thoughts.

You may house their bodies but not their souls.

For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
