Having learned from yesterday's lesson, Little Domi was exceptionally obedient today.

She did whatever Sang Feiyu asked her to do; she slept when it was time to sleep and ate when it was time to eat.

Zhao Huidu remarked that Sang Feiyu was better at taking care of children than any of them.

Someone saw Little Domi playing outside. Her mother told her to go back to sleep, and she immediately went back to sleep without crying or making a fuss. They couldn't help but come over to ask for advice.

"Comrade Sang, you have to teach me how to train a child to be so well-behaved and obedient?"

The person who came to learn from Sang Feiyu was a young military dependent.

Her son is two years older than her daughter, Domi. Because the child is too difficult to take care of by herself, she has been unable to have a second child.

Sang Feiyu asked about her current situation, and the young wife, Xiao Li, replied, "My son has two major problems right now: one is eating, and the other is sleeping."

She frowned as she mentioned these two things: "Whenever it's time to eat, he wants to play, but when it's time to sleep, he doesn't want to sleep and wants to play too."

"Moreover, he is a picky eater and doesn't eat many things. I'm worried that his lack of food will affect his growth."

After listening to her words, Sang Feiyu understood. "Let's talk about the meal first."

“My son, Domi, has the same problem as your son. My solution is to not force him to eat if he doesn’t want to.”

"Let him play. When he's tired and hungry, don't feed him until it's mealtime."

"That way he'll know next time that if he doesn't eat, there won't be any left. Only by being ruthless and letting him go hungry will he change. Otherwise, he'll always do whatever he wants."

Xiao Li was speechless after hearing this. "Comrade Sang, how could you be so heartless?"

"Spoiling a child is like killing a child; I believe you've heard this saying before."

Xiao Li replied, "It's not that exaggerated. The child is so young, things will get better."

"A child is like a blank sheet of paper. Whatever he becomes is the image drawn by us, the parents."

“You spoil him in everything now. It may seem like you care about him, but it will actually harm him.”

"Take eating for example. If he doesn't eat three meals a day on time, and does this for a long time, first of all, his stomach can't take it. He's so young, if he develops stomach problems, it will cause him a lot of trouble later..."

Xiao Li was still shaken after hearing this. "After hearing what you said, I'll go back today and change all his bad habits."

Sang Feiyu first gave her a heads-up, "When a child cries, it's not always because he really wants to cry; he just knows that if he cries, you will listen to him."

“He’s using this method to control you, so you have to stand firm and not be soft-hearted. If you are soft-hearted, it will be very difficult for you to change later. The child knows that you care about him, and he will always use the same method to deal with you.”

“When your child cries, find something else to do and don’t pay attention to him. The more you pay attention to him, the harder he will cry. When he realizes that no one is watching his performance, he will stop crying on his own because he knows that crying is useless.”

Xiao Li hesitated for a moment, then finally said, "I'll come back to ask you for advice if anything happens."

She felt that Sang Feiyu's description of children was too terrifying. How could such young children know how to manipulate people's hearts?

But seeing how well Sang Feiyu had taught Xiao Duomi, she thought it wouldn't hurt to listen to what she had to say.

As soon as Xiao Li got home, he put Sang Feiyu's teachings into practice.

"Son, you play here for a while, Mom will make you something delicious."

"Mommy, I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!"

"There's no meat at home today, so Mom will make you eggs, okay?"

"I don't want to eat eggs, I want to eat meat. I haven't eaten meat in a long time."

Xiao Li's son immediately burst into tears as he became anxious.

She remembered what Sang Feiyu had said: children are very good at manipulating people's hearts. They know that if they cry, you will feel sorry for them. So she had no choice but to harden her heart and not look at her son.

"No one can eat meat every day. Mom wants to eat meat every day too. If you want to eat meat, I'll fry you an egg. If you don't want to eat meat, I won't make it. It'll save me the effort."
