家庭教育名言
1. Life affords no greater responsibility, no greater privilege,
than the raising of the next generation.
命里不会有比养育下一代更有使命感和优先权的事情了。
2. Don’t confuse love with permissiveness.
Sometimes telling a child no
is the most loving thing you can do for him.
别将放任与爱混为一谈。
有时候对孩子说“不”才显出你对他的大爱。
3. No matter what you've done for yourself or for humanity,
if you can't look back on having given love and attention to your own family,
what have you really accomplished?
无论你为你自己和全人类贡献了些什么，
如果当你回首而发现没能对家庭倾注爱与关心，
你又究竟算是成就了些什么呢？
4. I looked on childrearing not only as a work of love and duty
but as a profession that was fully interesting and challenging
as any honorable profession in the world
and one that demanded the best that I could bring to it.
-- Rose Kennedy (mother of JFK)
我认为养育孩子不仅是体现爱与责任的苦工，
而还是一项充满趣味和挑战性，如同世上任何其他令人尊敬的职业，
而且它要求我把我最好的奉献其中。
5. Say thank you often
so a child knows you don’t take her actions for granted.
Even thank her for doing chores.
Remember, children learn by example.
If you want a grateful child you must show gratitude.
常说“谢谢”，那么孩子就不会认为你对她的行为熟视无睹了。
即使她做的是家务杂活，也应谢谢她。
记住，言传不如身教。
如果你想培养出一个会感恩的孩子，你也必须时时展示感恩之情。
6. Keep yourself in good health
so you can meet your child’s needs for a long time.
Don’t smoke. Don’t drink and drive. Exercise.
And of course, set a good example by eating healthy foods.
保持你自己的健康，那么你就能长期地满足孩子的需要。
别吸烟。别酒后驾驶。做运动。
还有，不消多说，树立健康饮食的好榜样。
7. Don’t let dinner be ruined by TV watching.
Enjoy your family around the table,
sharing experiences of the day,
plans for the future or read aloud a few pages from a good book.
Use dinner as a time to feed your body, your mind and your spirit.
Turn off the TV!
别让晚饭时间被电视毁了。
享受济济一桌的家庭生活，
分享当天的经历，分享未来的计划，或者朗读几页好书。

一定要关掉电视！
8. At the end of the day, a loving family should find everything forgivable.

They are the inspiration to reach great heights,
and our comfort when we occasionally falter.

它们是到达新高的灵感来源，而且是我们蹒跚之时的安慰。
10. Feelings of worth can flourish only in an atmosphere
where individual differences are appreciated,
mistakes are tolerated, communication is open, and rules are flexible
-- the kind of atmosphere that is found in a nurturing family.
存在价值只能在个人差异被欣赏、错误被容忍、交流开放无碍、
规则弹性灵活的氛围下盛放
— 如此氛围可以在一个有教养的家庭中找到。
11. There are two things you must give a child.
The first is roots:
a deep understanding of your confidence in his abilities
and your unconditional love.
The other is wings:
the right to use those abilities on his own
because you want him to gain his independence.
有两样东西你必须给予孩子。
第一样是根：你对他能力的深刻了解还有你无条件的爱。
另一样是翼：使用他那些能力的权力，因为你希望他去获取他的独立。

where boys and girls first learn how to take responsibility,
abide by rules, and consider the rights and needs of others.

a mother's goodness deeper than the sea.

have happy lives and find something they want to do.
Your job as a parent is to give your kids
not only the instincts and talents to survive,
but help them enjoy their lives.
