Many parents today, most of them hope that their children will become successful and have great results in their education. As long as they feel that any expenditure will result in investing in their children’s learning, they will not hesitate to spend more money.Â
However, when educating children to become academically talented and how to make them become a caring person who understands the hardships of life is another matter.
Many times we will see some news that some children have become veritable “spoiled” under bad parenting. But a boy in China is completely the opposite.
11-year-old selling food
On July 31, a netizen in Zaozhuang, Shandong took a picture of an 11-year-old boy busy greeting customers in front of a food stall. Judging from the age of the little boy, he should have been in school, but he insisted that it is his own shop and was busy with work.
It turned out that the 11-year-old boy was helping his parents to share some work during the summer vacation. He was busy in front of the stall by himself and greets the guests, while his parents were busy making food in the back kitchen. Every day from seven or eight in the morning, until eleven or twelve in the evening, all this busyness is the little boy’s summer vacation life.
The netizens who took the video saw from the scene that there were three things sold at the food stall under the watch of the little boy: one was hand cakes, the other was sauce-flavoured cakes, and the other was porridge.Â
These three snacks support the life of the little boy’s family.
Words of an adult
The little boy told the netizen who filmed the video: “I watch the stall outside alone, and my father makes it in the house. In the morning, I usually work from seven or eight to eleven or twelve in the evening.” The netizen asked: “Do you want to go out to play? , go out for a walk?” The little boy replied: “I must think so, but there is no way. There is an old saying that there is no sweetness without bitterness.”
When there were no customers, the little boy ran to the back kitchen, picked up a bundle of green onions and was busy sorting them. Netizens were shocked that at such a young age he was looking for a job and was busy helping the family share the responsibilities.
Teaching children to bear hardships and being able to withstand hard work from an early age is also one of the greatest treasures in life. Only when they know how to bear hardships and stand hard work, such children will not be able to bear the pressure when they encounter setbacks and blows.
