     Most parents hope that their children can be happy and successful. But do you know the most powerful (很有效的) way to encourage them to be so? 丁lie answer is to allow them to make their own decisions.

     Unfortunately,most parents make decisions for their children —what they wear,what they eat and what movies they watch. In fact,it's not good for children to grow up.

When children get older,you can expand the number of choices you give them. For example,allow them to decide the activities they want to take part in or when they go to bed.

      The next step is to teach your children to think before they act. Let them ask themselves several important questions. First,why do I want to do this? Second,what are my choices? Third,what are the results of the actions? After the three questions,they are sure to make right decisions.
