Why ‘Little Bear’ Made Me Burst Into Tears

I am not much sentimental parents. In fact, I feel guilty that there is no emotional response to pre-school graduation or first haircut. Therefore, when I read these lines from my "Little Bear" to my daughter, I was surprised that I was crying.

Well, complete trust, on the one hand, and childhood unconscious self-centered. "Please tell me about my business." As an adult, no matter how much we like it, we do not ask for that attention (it will take 5 to 10 minutes, of course).

However, I really got to remember the passage of time. The bear is still very few, but already he is bigger than him. A lot passed: he tried unnecessarily to wear warm snow, his monthly trip, his sixth birthday party. Childhood is very fast. In my opinion, I summarized this bitter fact: the days are long but the years are short

The bear told her mother to tell himself. As parents, we play an important role in shaping and protecting the memory of the short history of our children. Remembering the past happy hours is now an important way to improve happiness because children need the help of their parents to maintain good memories.

It may be a hassle to be an infinite anecdote about parents of art projects, portraits of classes, and when you are trapped in the toilet and thrown on the way to the airport, but this is an important obligation. . When I finally succumbed to organize a large collection of photographs, I experienced a nearly nervous collapse but I think these records are memorable to my daughter and my daughter and to me We knew that it was a way.

These pictures are necessary to show us what "we did". It will be more comfortable if you do not remind me that the time has ended, but it is also a pleasure to remember that what was not so long ago is still part of us.

I told my daughter to have dinner. She is 17 years old and very smart and strong. She burst into tears. She could not bear the details of the hit; she had never seen it. She coped with her parents' divorce and made her angry. But now she knows how to abuse. She is my strongest friend. A few days later, I called my wife and talked about what happened. She sounded very dark, accused me of bipolarity and messed up my life. I regretted myself and I regret to call her an attacker. I wrote my family and withdrew my argument that she only played several times to try to conceal the results of what I did. But one evening, quietly at the moment of reflection, I realized that she was really attacking me. I saw my dog ​​Charlie and I thought that the way I hit him would destroy our wonderful relationship.

On Friday, a small boy started crying. He was fancy when I started the timer, so he did not have full time to complete the timing. His mother was to blame for him so he began to cry. As soon as I said that I did not worry, we were able to do it again, he could start calm, but he took a while to avoid worrying. (Kathy) I think our students are more anxious here. Their physical needs decrease, abuse decreases, and social problems decrease. However, when dealing with firefighting training, locking and evacuation, there is such high anxiety. They worry that there are many irrational fears

When I was young, I was really shy. There was a family movie about my 4th birthday party When my mother brought my cake, it made me tears and then ran away. I can not pay such attention. For years my father painted my picture on the bedside table. Among them, I just peeked from behind his feet and caught him for a loving life. As I grew older, I found it increasingly difficult to talk to groups of people. I can become myself if I am really comfortable, like my family, friends, or several classmates. But in a new situation or a big group? Forget it. can not say anything

Looking for my voice: I write a way to turn my childhood shy into a gift (a story of children and growth)
