是否喜欢 “制定计划”，这取决于你的个性类型（MBTI）？
Translated by Haiying Dong
有些人天生喜欢做规划，但在规划社交活动或设定具体日期时，情况又有所不同。 而对另一些人来说，“制定计划”带来了太多的压力，甚至对于某些人“制定计划”就只意味着束缚。 对于“制定计划”的观感，完全取决于你的个性类型。
Losing connection with our children and teens
One of the fastest ways of achieving this is to constantly be checking our mobile phone, answering txts and emails and scrolling for other information which we feel is important for us. Now I’m not against this wonderful technology. What would we do without it? We use it constantly and…
Trust and the Adolescent
We all want to trust our adolescent to make wise decisions about their life, their choice of subjects at school, their friends and their future. We want to trust them to have a good attitude and always try to do the right thing. To find ways to get on well…
칭찬은 아이를 강하게 만든다
‘칭찬은 고래도 춤추게 한다’ 속담처럼 사람들은 칭찬이 가진 힘을 믿지만 막상 아이를 칭찬하는데 있어선 인색하기 싶다. 아이가 잘하는 것에 대해선 당연하게 여기고, 못하는 것에만 자꾸 눈길을 주고 혼내게 되는 경우가 많다. 코스에 왔던 아빠 중 한 분이 ‘우리 아이는 지금 6살인데 고집이 세고, 샤워하는 걸 싫어해요’라고 불만을 이야기했다. 아이가 혹시…

Teenage Rebellion
For us as parents of nearly teenagers, the very thought of this strikes the very dept of our parenting heart. We worry about what will we do if our teen rebels. How will we cope? If our child is already a rebelling teen we tend to feel desperate and often…
孩子在幼儿园所学的社交技能比他们的“学习”更重要
Translated by Peipei Wu and Haiying Dong
幼儿的父母总是担心孩子在进入他们“学习”生涯之前是不是学到了足够的知识。
“Johnny能读出100个高频单词吗？”
“Betty知道怎么从1数到500吗？” (more…)
