57、nts should let their children eat bitter foods, do hard work and experience a hard life. I grew up in an ordinary family, which is not so well off. I could understand the hardships my parents were bearing at that time. Therefore, I work very hard now in the hope of entering the university and change

58、 the situation of my family and me. I think that in a certain sense, difficult situations can stimulate a persons potential and pave the way for him to success. One can be strong, brave and faithful after all these hardships he has gone through. All in all, as far as I am concerned, I think that flo

59、wers from a greenhouse can never withstand a storm and that a hard life is good for children.To make the child grow strong, parents should make him eat poor food, do hard work, and experience life in bad conditions, with which a child will value the labour and be capable of facing hardship.I lived a

60、 happy childhood. Not only did my parents love me form the bottom of heart, but also they gave me chances to increase my ability. My parents attached primary importance to the management of my pocket money, which led to the consequence that often I could only watch my friends eating candies with my

61、empty pocket. This experience helped me wake up to the truth that my parents worked hard to earn a life, and so would I in the future.As the saying goes, No pains, no gains. it is obvious that the way one lives his childhood plays an important part in his development. If one is brought up in a famil

62、y that is wasteful, he is likely to be lazy when he grows up. On the other hand, a child who lives a hard life in his childhood, learning that one must be independent and frugal to face challenge, is bound to be strong. On parents part, they can teach the child to help support the family. More can be done apart from food, hard work and bad conditions.Instead of being spoiled, children should eat bitter food to learn to be frugal, do hard work to learn to cherish, and be sent to somewhere tough to learn to be brave.
