If life had a starting line, someone was born in Rome

Chapter 174 Children can control their own lives, but parents are doing them a disservice! ([-]-in-[-])

Consider and respect your children’s wishes? !
Wang Mei and Qian Zhiqiang looked at each other, their expressions full of confusion.

What Teacher Lin said was inconsistent with all their presuppositions!

Moreover, they have made it so clear before that they are all doing it for the good of the children, so why do they find fault?
Qian Yongan saw the quarrel between his parents' eyebrows, and then glanced at Lin Feng in the picture.

It would be a lie to say he was unhappy, after all, Teacher Lin supported him.

However, it is obvious that parents cannot understand Teacher Lin’s suggestion now. What if they don’t listen?
In the live broadcast room, the audience started talking at this moment.

"??Teacher Lin has taken sides?"

"Is it because Qian Yongan's model display just now is so eye-catching that he clearly supports children? However, practical issues also need to be considered."

"I think there's nothing wrong with Mr. Lin's stance. The kid showed off his skills just now, so he should have no problem supporting himself."

"That's right!"

"That's the problem. Judging from the looks on the children's parents' faces, I'm afraid it won't be easy to convince them."

"Yes, how will Teacher Lin persuade parents next?"

"..."

Just when everyone was confused and worried, Wang Mei spoke first:

"Teacher Lin, why do you think it's good for children to learn this? Is there something we haven't made clear?"

Qian Zhiqiang also nodded in agreement.

In their eyes, learning civil engineering is a great thing, and their children’s future jobs are all planned.

Isn't making this model just like a child playing with a toy?

Moreover, no one in the family is engaged in this industry, so why embark on such a risky path?
Lin Feng heard Wang Mei's question and understood their doubts, and explained:

"First of all, the kid Yong'an is talented in aerospace."

"In your opinion, the provincial youth model aircraft competition cannot add points to the college entrance examination, so it is useless."

"But, parents, you have to know that most of Yongan's competitors at that time were children whose families had the means and who were exposed to this industry at a very young age."

"Yongan only came into contact with model aircraft in high school, and the time was very short."

"He was able to win the bronze medal in one fell swoop, and the gold content in it is even higher than the gold medal."

"Moreover, I just saw Yongan's aircraft model and operating technology. They are very mature. It is hard to imagine that this is a self-taught child."

"Having said all this, what I want to say is that this child's talent and love are enough to support him to go a long way on this road."

As Lin Feng's words fell, Qian Yongan nodded heavily several times, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes.

Teacher Lin really understands the hardships he has experienced along the way.

Wang Mei and Qian Zhiqiang lowered their heads and thought for a moment, and agreed with Lin Feng's statement.

Needless to say, I love you, I can see it all.

In terms of talent, although they don't understand technology, if Teacher Lin said they are awesome, then they are really awesome.

However, Wang Mei still tried to convince Lin Feng:

"But, Teacher Lin, no one in our family understands this industry. Wouldn't it be terrible if our children can't find a job in the future?"

Qian Zhiqiang nodded and once again emphasized the point he was very fond of:
"His uncle's construction company can't hire an aerospace college student, right? Even if he does it for our sake, we might not be able to part with him even if he has to leave the construction site."

After hearing what the parents said, Lin Feng smiled helplessly.

Still struggling here about going to work in his uncle's construction company.

But there are excuses.

Because at first glance, this couple has spent most of their lives in slow-developing places such as rural areas and small counties, which means that their horizons and cognitive levels are not sufficient.

Parents with average vision and cognitive level can only make judgments based on their past experiences.

When I saw that someone in my family was making a lot of money in a construction company, I thought of sending my son there as well, so that someone could protect him and make money.

In this process, the child's wishes and abilities are ignored.

This is also the root cause of conflicts in their family.

If you want to solve their family's problems, you need to analyze the truth behind it to the parents.

So, Lin Feng said:
"Yongan's parents, in fact, there are many career choices in the world, and it is not just construction companies that can make money."

"You can search online to find out what the average salary of programmers is now."

However, even though he said that, in order to save time, Lin Feng still gave the answer directly:
"I can tell you a number. If you can get into a good factory after graduation, the starting salary will be 20 yuan a year."

After finishing speaking, Wang Mei and Qian Zhiqiang showed surprised expressions on their faces.

Qian Yongan frowned slightly, wondering why Teacher Lin said this.

At this time, Lin Feng's voice continued to sound:
"I heard what you said before. After your child graduated from civil engineering, he joined his uncle's construction company and earned more than 1 yuan a month. That would be considered a top salary of [-] to [-] yuan a year. Did he not become a programmer? The salary is high?”

"Let me ask you another question now. If you send your children to study programmer-related majors, would you be willing?"

When Qian Zhiqiang and Wang Mei heard this question, a flash of heartbeat flashed on their faces, and then they shook their heads.

"Teacher Lin, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that we don't have a programmer around us. How can we lead Yong'an?"

"Yes, it is safer to follow the path taken by our predecessors. We will be satisfied if we earn 10,000+ a year."

This answer was expected by Lin Feng. He smiled slightly and said his original intention:
"Actually, what I said so much is to ask you to think about it. Is the reference for your judgment based on what you have seen in the past and the experience you have?"

"For you, what your children learn is not the point at all."

"The key point is whether anyone around you has been successful in this area."

After the words fell, the confusion on Qian Yongan's face faded and turned into admiration.

What Teacher Lin can clearly say directly is that he gave such an example considering the cognitive level of his parents.

Really well-intentioned!
Wang Mei and Qian Zhiqiang thought about what Lin Feng said, and slowly their faces began to turn red.

Seeing the two of them blushing, Lin Feng naturally knew their answers, and then said:

"Yongan's parents, I would like to ask you, what is the highest diploma you two have? What kind of jobs have you had?"

Upon hearing the question, Wang Mei quickly said:
"My boss and I have suffered from being uneducated for most of our lives, let alone diplomas."

"Normally, I farm and do some small business. It's not stable."

Lin Feng nodded clearly and said:
"The world today is developing extremely fast."

"You and your wife have spent most of your lives in rural areas where development is slow, which means your horizons and knowledge are not adequate."

"When I say this, I absolutely do not mean to discriminate against you, but I mean that it is actually very difficult for you to keep up with this rapidly changing world."

After the words fell, the couple nodded in agreement, and you spoke one sentence at a time:

"Teacher Lin, what's so presumptuous and discriminatory... We don't have this idea."

"You're telling us that from the bottom of our hearts, we can't understand many of the new things on Douyin, and we really can't keep up."

"We all know that the family ultimately relies on the child Yongan!"

"Yes, that's why I forced him to study hard and study civil engineering."

"Everything we do is for this child to have a better future than both of us."

Hearing the couple's true feelings, Lin Feng nodded with understanding:
"I am also a child from a rural area, and now I am a teacher. I have met many parents, and I can actually understand your mentality."

"But as parents, if our hearts are good, can we guarantee that the outcome will be good?"

No need for Lin Feng to elaborate, Wang Mei and Qian Zhiqiang sighed:
"Where can it be?"

“Isn’t the current situation of this child Yong’an just like… ugh!”

The two of them couldn't talk any more.Lin Feng looked at them softly and said:
"There are many parents who cannot keep up with this era. In front of them, there are usually two options. Let me tell you, listen to it, and then tell me which option you think is better."

When Wang Mei and Qian Zhiqiang heard this, they nodded quickly.

"The first is to stick to the experiences you have seen in the past and stubbornly demand that your children must follow the path they have planned. However, this era is changing too fast, and it is very likely that by the time the children go there, they will find that the road has disappeared. "

"The second is to believe that the child can keep up with this era better than you, to see the child's strengths and strengths, and to support him to develop and explore the path he wants to take."

"Which one do you choose?"

After the words fell, Wang Mei and Qian Zhiqiang fell silent, and the expressions on their faces began to change inexplicably.

Qian Yongan, on the other hand, looked at his parents nervously.

Their choices are very important to themselves now.

While the parents were thinking, the audience in the live broadcast room also started talking.

"Actually, it's not difficult to understand the truth once it's broken down and crushed. I choose second."

"Yes, in this era of rapid change, it is always the next generation that can keep up with the pace of the world better than the previous generation."

"It was established and necessary in the past for parents to use their own past experiences to guide their children, because at that time social development was slow and there were only a few roads. Having someone to guide them could avoid many detours, but this is not the case now. , Nowadays, development is fast and there are many choices. At this time, relying on past experiences and pointing the way may lead to a dead end. "

"After listening to your summary, I realized that Teacher Lin really worked hard to make this couple understand what he said."

"To put it bluntly, after four years, it's hard to say whether Qian Yongan's uncle's construction company will still be there or not."

"You have found a blind spot. The average survival time of small and medium-sized enterprises is only two and a half years now, and the survival rate of companies that are 5 to 10 years old is only 7%... This kid will find out after graduation that his uncle's company is gone. That's hell."

"I wonder which option the couple will choose? Teacher Lin won't waste his words, right?"

"Looking at the expressions on their faces and the length of silence, I guess Teacher Lin has already convinced them."

"It doesn't matter what we say, it's still up to the parents."

"Parents, choose!"

"..."

Outside the live broadcast room, director Liu Yong looked at Qian Zhiqiang and his wife in the screen, and then at Lin Feng, who was waiting silently.

The expression on his face was very sad.

It's really not easy to be a teacher, especially Lin Feng, who has to face so many complicated situations.

He simply used the four words "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" to the extreme!
For example, if this happened to you, just say:
"If you use your past superficial experience to judge the new things and new environments that are developing with each passing day, and you stubbornly interfere in your children's choices, the final result you get is likely to be contrary to the correct answer."

After you finish speaking, scold yourself again, and the educational effect will be achieved.

But when faced with Qian Zhiqiang and his wife, whose education level is not high, Teacher Lin is really good at persuading them.

At this time, Liu Yong remembered the scene where he was scolded bloody by Lin Feng on the first day the program team arrived, and he felt very emotional.

Just when his thoughts were wandering and he was thinking endlessly, the voice of Wu Peng beside him interrupted him:

"Sister Sun, Teacher Lin has made it so clear. Why do this couple still think about it for so long?"

Liu Yong looked over and saw Sun Wei thinking for a moment and shrugged:

"Although Teacher Lin broke down the truth and told it to them, it is still difficult for a person to change his mind. If you ask me, thinking for a long time is not the problem, but not being able to think clearly is the problem."

After the words fell, Wu Peng's face showed a trace of solemnity:
"I wonder how these parents will choose..."

Liu Yong smiled softly, stroked their heads, and said:
"I have some confidence in Teacher Lin."

After the words fell, the three of them looked at each other, smiled slightly, and looked at the screen again.

At this moment, Wang Mei and Qian Zhiqiang had come to their senses.

Their previous approach was the first one mentioned by Teacher Lin.

But now after enlightenment, both of them realized that the second option was actually better.

Precisely because they realized this, the expressions on their faces gradually turned to shame.

Then, Qian Zhiqiang whispered:

"Teacher Lin, I, we know what the problem is, and we also know which one to choose."

Wang Mei nodded and said to Lin Feng with a somewhat hesitant expression:
"Teacher Lin, is it too late for us to understand now? Because this child has been delayed by us for a year..."

After the words fell, both of them felt a little unable to face their children, so they did not dare to look at Qian Yongan's expression.

But Lin Feng did not ignore the feeling of relief and relief on Qian Yongan's face when they admitted their mistake.

Now, he was a little curious——

Does Qian Yongan have any plans?

So, Lin Feng did not answer Wang Mei's question, but looked at Qian Yongan:

"Yong'an, do you have a plan for your next actions?"

After the words fell, Qian Zhiqiang and his wife suddenly turned their heads and looked at their son.

Qian Yongan looked at Lin Feng in surprise and said:
"Teacher Lin, how come you know everything?"

After he finished speaking, he smiled sheepishly and then said seriously:

"I do have my own plans."

"Now I am preparing for the international model airplane competition next month. The model airplane is not the one I just showed off."

"Teacher Lin, I want to keep the content related to the competition confidential, so I won't talk about it on the live broadcast."

Lin Feng nodded, this kind of thing is understandable.

Seeing Lin Feng's understanding, Qian Yongan continued:

"If I can get a place in this competition, I can participate in the special recruitment of the school of my choice."

"I had an email exchange with the professor at that university through my high school physics teacher."

"Professor will ask the teacher to notify me as soon as possible about special recruitment information."

"Let me prepare as required, so I won't miss or be late to prepare the information."

"However, I don't completely count on this competition. I have never fallen behind in my cultural classes. I have already contacted the school where I will repeat my studies and will sign up next week."

Listening to Qian Yongan's description, the audience in the live broadcast room nodded repeatedly.

"Be prepared, this kid is organized!"

"College admissions are nothing more than special admissions and college entrance examination. This kid has taken both of them into consideration. It's great!"

"It can be seen that Qian Yongan has been working hard on the ground for his dream."

"This is called planning for the future. In contrast, his parents really just talked about it before."

"Qian Yong'an, the future is promising!"

"Come on kid!"

"..."

Qian Yongan's parents had turned around and looked at their son with a smile in front of them.

This was the first time they realized that their child had grown taller than themselves.

Also, whether it is body or mind, children already have the ability to leave home.

Thinking of this, Wang Mei looked guilty and said to Qian Yongan:
"Son, I'm sorry, because of your parents' ignorance, I wasted a year in vain."

As soon as he spoke like this, Qian Zhiqiang also had a heavy look of guilt on his face.

Children can control their own lives, but we parents are doing a disservice!
