Children do not have to work, they have no thoughts about politics and social scale, long-term relationship and drum, associated with it. They are in the unique state when it is possible to understand what is really important in this life. And adults, with all its problems and will park there is a lot to learn. Here are five things to know the children, but we have forgotten.
Stop sulking and get away
Adults are used to decide what to do and where to be. Children do not have this privilege, and if adults decide that the child should go with them on a boring event, he has no choice - we can only be capricious or offended.
Plus the fact that the child can not take offense for long. He too interested in the world around us, and every little bit interesting event can distract him and cheer: a great song on the radio, stupid toy on iPod - anything.
Few adults can just as quickly forget their troubles and get distracted by something else, and although parents can no longer force us to go where we do not want, we often do it themselves, because "Must".
What lesson can be learned from the behavior of children?
Do not get hung up on the issue, a boring party or event where you have to be present. Distracted by anything - look out the window, listen to music, play fun games, or just dream. In any situation, you can find something interesting, and it will be much better than to continue to sulk on his fate.
Error - this is not a disaster
When you are dealing with children - no matter his or not - you are limiting themselves in many ways, for example, do not swear, do not drink and do not tell vulgar jokes.
But if you suddenly rugnotes with child mat, nothing terrible will happen. Perhaps you do not even have to explain to him that it is wrong to swear, because if it education did not include profanity every day, and you will not hear from him obscene words. And if included, to wean him from the mat will be very difficult - it does not matter, threats of punishment or explanatory conversation.
What can be learned from this:
Do not worry about a single error, they practically do not pay attention. For example, if you are late by 20 minutes to work once a year, your boss will most likely not even notice it. Visible already established patterns of behavior, and about such small miscalculations can not even worry.
Training with passion
The children do not have much time to become an expert in anything, but they are not afraid of the inability to do something. If the child have an interest in the game, he can pass it a thousand times until it finally happens.
Children do not get frustrated by the fact that they did not get to do something, they simply do not yet work. Adults often see themselves as experts in a certain area and do not even try to learn something else.
It's like "I do not know" can be considered a serious reason not to.
The moral is:
Until you begin to learn to do something, you do not know how. And no matter how long it takes out to make progress. If you are fascinated something to do, do not put yourself frameworks, how many need to get, and just do as long as it does not turn.
The desire for something new
Kids love to try something new, they are interested in the whole world, because they do not have certain standards that is interesting and what is not.
In adults, there are established patterns, and what exactly does not coincide with their interests, swept aside as unnecessary.
The lesson is obvious:
Do not put yourself about the limitations of interest. If you recommend a great movie, a genre you do not really love, at least try to see it, suddenly you will like it. The same applies to the other interests: if you've never tried something, but I think that you will not like it, still try.
There is no template for life
Children can equally well to communicate with the same age, and with those who are under them, and with adults, though not necessarily with their parents and relatives.
Most adults have a hard templates and differentiation by age, sex, social status. At the same time it can be fun to be with anyone: children, teenagers, the same age, the people of the older generation.
Yes, the classes will be different: with kids, you can not see the "Game of Thrones" or play in the bloody shooter, but it does not mean that it will be boring to them.
We try to pick up friends with the same interests, and most of the social division really work. But this does not mean that you can not learn something from people of different social groups.
