Scientists have proven that children learn not only in words but in deeds of their parents. If you want to teach the child a lesson, do it by example.
Children inherit from their parentsIf at First You Do not Succeed, Show Your Baby Again. not only their genes. Observing the behavior of adults, children and adopt their personal qualities such as perseverance and tenacity.
Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology found that the child, who had seen a grown man successfully overcomes the difficulties subsequently will show tenacity in carrying out any tasks.
"The same inference mechanisms for children are used as for the study of the world, and for changing their behavior in the world - explains Laura Schultz, the cognitive scientist, one of the wires is study. - We do not realize how much our actions affect child behavior. Watching us, they do for themselves the appropriate conclusions. "
The study involved 262 children from 13 to 18 months, were divided into three groups. In the first group researcher pretended he kept trying to raise two games, and then using it is child succeed. In the second group of scientists gathered just two games. And in the third, he did not do anything at all.
After that, each child was given a small musical toy. Children have shown that it can play music, but not taught how to do it. Most children to guess how to turn a toy, it was in the first group. In other words, to solve this problem could those who watched the purposeful behavior of adults. They adopted his trait.
Currently, scientists who conducted the study, trying to figure out what kind of interaction with the children, such as talking or gesturing, has the greatest influence on them. They hope that their research will tell parents how to raise purposeful child. To do this, you need to demonstrate that not everything in this life is given as easy as it seems.
