Xiao Xingren's mother was a little embarrassed, keeping her head down and holding the coffee cup. Shang Ning thoughtfully asked for a glass of warm water and handed it to Xiao Xingren's mother.
“Auntie, every child brought into this world is the best gift God gives to their parents. We often say that the most enlightened parents let their children do what they like and don't interfere with their choices. After all, the future is a path the child must walk themselves. But why should parents stay by their children's side when they are young, instead of walking their own path from birth? It's because discerning the direction of life is a skill that parents must teach their children during this period. Only by learning this skill can they walk their own path in life and make the choices they want to make. Money is important, no one denies that, but Auntie, will the wages you lose by taking three to five days off immediately put your finances in dire straits? Will taking three to five days off specifically to correct your child's mistakes cause you to lose your job?”
So, often, the reason people work to earn money is not so much because managing children is too troublesome, but because they want to escape it.
She was very disobedient when she was very young, but whenever she made a serious mistake and didn't know how to repent, her parents would stop what they were doing in the lab and stay home to correct her mistakes.
It only takes three to five days; it won't cost her her job or instantly deprive her of her source of income.
"Auntie, there's something I think you should think about too. When a child is disobedient and won't listen to reason, a good beating will do the trick." Shang Ning said with a smile, then changed her mind, "Just kidding."
The point is, she wanted to beat that brat up. If she weren't so busy, she would have gone over there with a sack and given her a good beating.
What to do when your child is disobedient?
It was done!
A beating will do the trick!
When Xiao Xingren ran over, she was out of breath. She pulled her mother to her feet and looked at Shang Ning, stammering, "What, what, did you say to my mother?"
Shang Ning leaned back in her chair and watched the little girl, her face flushed and her eyes filled with fear, just like a primary school student whose parents had been called in.
It's alright, there's hope. At least it knows fear.
Xiao Xingren's mother suddenly changed her expression, grabbed her daughter and pulled her outside, saying, "Come home now, and stop embarrassing yourself in public."
商宁看着被扯出去的小杏仁，微微耸肩啧了一声，怕是要回去挨揍了。
I felt inexplicably much better.
Before the meeting, Shang Ning had already thought it through. If she kept complaining about what her child had done, everyone would be annoyed. Children are people that you can scold but others can't talk about. So Shang Ning didn't mention that the child had done anything wrong. She just said that the parents hadn't played a guiding role.
This way, their own children aren't criticized, and parents are more likely to listen to other people's opinions.
For example, go home and give them a beating.
After finishing her business, Shang Ning got up to go home, but as she stood up, her heart suddenly started beating faster, as if it was about to jump out of the confines of her chest.
Thump thump thump...
Makes a sound.
Shang Ning slammed her hands down on the table, her tinnitus worsening. The faint sound of the wind chimes by the door seemed amplified, swirling around her ears.
After a short while, everything began to calm down. My heartbeat gradually returned to normal, and even the symptoms of tinnitus and dizziness disappeared.
The veins on the backs of Shang Ning's hands were still visible. She looked up at the wind chimes hanging by the door, but her mind went blank, and she couldn't think of anything.
