Educators, as well, acknowledge that making friends is one of the

19、most valuable things children do as they learn and grow. But many parents are perplexed by their childrens social lives, wondering how to help their kids cope with the challenges, heartbreaks, and the joys of making friends, losing them, and making friends again.“Friendships help children gradually

20、learn to be independent, contributing members of a community and its just as important as their academic growth” notes Diane Levin, Ph.D., author of “Remote Control Childhood.” However, its a slow process. There are many social skills to learn, which advance with age and experience, trial and error,

21、 and experiencing the satisfaction that comes from contributing to an ongoing friendship.”“Friendship starts as soon as children can crawl off their parents laps over to another child,” adds Michael Thompson, Ph.D., co-author of her life with you to her life with her friends. but who their friends a

22、re, how they interact with them, and how popular they are, is something parents have only limited control over.”Experts on childrens behavior say that problems like jealousies, breakups, bullying and teasing account for a big part of what parents, kids and teachers talk about, and what parents worry

23、 about.Get insights into how childrens friendships develop and how parents can help, if needed, and find ways to determine if your child is at risk for serious social problems or simply suffering from real (but common) social challenges.24.

26、ng of friendship?A. Children dont stay on parents lap any longer.B. Children get out of the control of their parents.C. Children dont share their stories with their parents.D. Children leave their parents for other kids willingly.CParents do need to teach their kids financial responsibility and that

27、 money is earned. Still, many child-development experts agree that tying a childs allowance to chores can be a slippery slope. Heres why. Susie Walton, master instructor at Peace in Your Home advises to keep chores and allowances totally separate. “Allowance is one thing. When it comes to chores, li

28、fe skills, responsibilitiesthats a whole different thing.” says Walton. Walton says, “When kids arent doing a chore, you dont say, well, there goes your allowance. Youre going to sit them down and ask whats going on. We are a team. We are a family. Weve got to have them done.” Besides, by paying chi

29、ldren for chores with an allowance, youll also be sending the message that work isnt worth doing unless theyre getting paid for it. There are times when it would make sense to pay kids for chores. Most financial and child-development experts agree that its a fine idea to pay children money for extra

30、 jobs that are outside their normal set of chores, such as washing windows, washing the car or helping to clean out the garageespecially if the child is saving for a big item. This may even develop an entrepreneurial (企业家的) spirit to think outside of the box to earn money. For parents who are concer

31、ned that their children wont learn the value of a dollar if the allowance isnt tied to household chores, note that there are still plenty of money management skills to be learned from a straight allowance. Depending on the age, kids can be made responsible for paying for their own toys or snacks. So

32、me parents even require that kids set aside a percentage of their allowance toward savings. “I really like having my own money,” says Kevin, 9. “Its up to me if I want to buy the cheap toy now, or save and get the better toy.” And thats a good lesson to learn at 9 years old. No matter which allowanc

33、e route you take in parenthood, kids will feel empowered by being able to handle their own money.28. Which of the following would Susie Walton most probably agree with? A. A childs allowance shouldnt be tied to chores. B. Kids shouldnt be forced to do chores. C. Doing chores teaches kids the value o

36、 the importance of kids doing chores B. whether parents should pay kids for chores C. the advantages of kids handling their own money D. whether parents should give kids regular allowancesDTheres no doubt that our character has a profound effect on our future. What we must remember, however, is not

37、merely how powerful character is in influencing our fate (命运), but how powerful we are in shaping our own character and, therefore, our own fate. Character may determine our fate, but character is not determined by fate.Its a common mistake to think of character as something that is fully formed and

38、 fixed very early in life. It calls to mind old proverbs like “A leopard cant change its spots” and “You cant teach an old dog new tricks.”This perspective that our character is “etched in stone” is supported by a great deal of modern psychology emphasizing self-acceptance. As Popeye says, “I am wha

39、t I am.” The hidden message is: Dont expect me to be more, better, or different.Ultimately, these views of humanity totally undervalue the lifelong potential for growth that comes with the power of reflection and choice.How depressing it would be to believe that we cant choose to be better, more hon

40、est, more respectful, more responsible, and more caring. None of us should give up the personal seeking to improve our character. Not because were bad, we dont have to be sick to get better , but because were not as good as we could be.There are so many things in life we cant control, whether were b

41、eautiful or smart, whether we had good parents or bad, whether we grew up with affirmation or negation. Its inspiring to remember that nothing but moral will power is needed to make us better.No, it isnt easy. But if we make a great effort to become more aware of the habits of heart and mind that dr
