<![CDATA[Eastern vs Western Parenting Philosophy]]>concern2,


chked with dd1. She told me couldn’t find the one given by school so she took another copy. The copy that she’s currently reading was taken by hubby when they passed by a shop. The owner put out for pple to take FOC.

I don’t think it matter which edition / publication, as long as the essence is the same.

Paiseh, I read the di zi gui, and really elders go first even for walking heehee.

My sis passed me the DVDs and other di zi gui materials some yrs back but I never sit still to study them. So it works nicely when hubby suggested that I consider registering dd1 in her current school. It help to push me to give di zi gui more eye ball heehee.

There are many human and religious wisdom around us. I can relate to do zi gui becos maybe it’s closer to my culture and religion bah.

Reading thru, I find many stuff that my parents tried to impart to me when I was a child. Now, as an adult reading di zi gui, realise those were not really nagging but pearls of wisdom heehee. Next stop for me will be san zi jing but not sure when.

😂 So nice! I wish my kids' school also teaches 弟子规! Can share which title your kid is using in school? I bought the comic 哥妹俩 version for them as DS likes the series. It feels weird for me to try and tell them they should respect their parents. So if schools can teach, we can reinforce all these messages. For some reason, when schools do reinforce all the things on character building that is being taught at home, it is more effective. In school, they will say, \"我妈妈也是这么说\" ; at home, they say, \"我的老师也是这么说“。 Perhaps it is a need to feel accepted by a bigger majority that convinces them on what is right. 🤷 When such values are well driven in, they are less likely to be swayed by peers, I feel.

Core values should start from home & by example.

Yes, not dismissing this need.

Me too, SAHM, but hor, when I reached the end, I couldn't help being amazed at how he is able to cry and be so touching in all his speeches. 😆 But still, :salute:

Made DS watch. DD still can't understand what's going on. :roll: I want to show her the most, cos she's starting to get really disrespectful towards us. Anyway, I've also bought 弟子规 and downloading some videos for kids and myself.

The delivery is a bit like those cultural revolution styles.......I watched too much TV too when I was young heehee. But the elements of truth are there. There are so many simple truths in the di zi gui. Many are common sense too.

dd1 is reading the edition of di zi gui given by her school. Usually we hold hands when it's just the 2 of us. One day, she told me to walk infront of her and I did not understand why. In the 2nd video, there's a part on elders first.......then the pebble drops. I'm not sure if her request is the correct interpretation though :rotflmao: I must read her di zi gui too heehee to educate myself.[/quote] 😂 So nice! I wish my kids' school also teaches 弟子规!

Thanks for sharing, Insider! 看了 获益不浅！
Glad that you like it.

Have these internalised in yourself and your children will be under your great blessings to be good. The 'energy' and '磁场' that I ever talked about are also related to this 'Newton Theory':
