Three kinds of Education the Kids Deserve.

Before offering our kids the world, first make sure we are able to help them establish a broad view of the world. Here are three kinds of education the kids deserve:

First, the education of love.  Love means to care about,  just like the way God loved the world. Since we know that we are appreciated and loved, then how can we treat people unconcernedly or indifferently? So, love is of No. 1 priority we need to teach the kids, by loving them ourselves, by helping them understand love and letting every kid be a carrier of love.

Then it comes to the education of beauty. Beauty usually can not be separated from truth, kindness, faithfulness and uprightness, that's why once the kids can appreciate beauty, they would form their own value judgments, and then keep away from doing bad deeds. Whenever I meet parents with their kids in museums, galleries or nature, I feel so happy to see that  the world is filled with hope.

A third important one is the education of independence. That is to say, let the kids understand they should progress through hard work. No matter what kind of skills they have, but as long as they put their heart into what they are doing, they can definitely achieve the goal of "doing well by doing good".

For these three directions, not one should be ignored.

In a letter to his wife in 1780, John Adams wrote, "...The science of government it is my duty to study, more than all other sciences; the arts of legislation and administration and negotiation ought to take the place of, indeed exclude, in a manner, all other arts. I must study politics and war, that our sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. Our sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history and naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry and porcelain."To some extent I agree with him, but still feel there's something else I must say, and that is why I am writing this article.
