How to Teach Your Kids to Respect Elders

 Parenting requires a lot of things. Parents need to teach their kids certain manners and etiquette (禮儀) that kids need to learn from an early stage of life. 1       In fact,it can be considered as one of the most important responsibilities of parents.

1. Be consistent. 2       Kids need to consistently be reminded about what they are supposed to do. So when you are teaching your child to respect an elderly person,try to remind them each time they meet a new one. Thus,after a certain time they will start respecting elders without you reminding them.

2. Observe. Always telling your kids what to do and what not to do may make them upset at times. When you teach them something,give them time to acquire it. 3       If not,you'll have to find a new method.

3. Let them socialize. 4       Some tiny behaviors will indicate how much progress they are making. Even though your prime focus will be on how they are approaching to elders,you may notice them behaving appropriately with other kids as well.

4. Become an example for them to follow. In every kid's nature,there is a tendency (傾向) to imitate others;especially their parents. If they see their parents violating the rules they are setting for them,then whom they will choose to look up for? 5       So,try not to just pretend but obey the things by yourself before you advise your kids.

   A. Kids are really sharp and they may pick your mistakes very quickly.

   B. Take them to places like parks where they can interact with others.

   C. You have to be very patient and remain loving throughout the whole process.

   D. A habit does not form in one day.

   E. Respecting elders is also one of them.

   F. And observe whether they are listening to you or not.

   G. Always remember that encouraging helps kids to stay away from the bad influence that they might get.

    Susan Cain was such a shy girl that she did not want Other people to look at her. But when she grew up Susan chose to be a lawyer,which is usually for a bold(大膽的) person. But Susan thinks that her shyness has made her a better lawyer.

    She said, “At first I had the idea that I would be disadvantaged. But I quickly found that was not true.I’m good at listening to people,which helps me build relationships with others. These would also make me very powerful.”

The lowest number was in Israel,only 31%. In most countries,bout 40% of the population said they were shy.

    Scientists say that it is because of two things: genetic（遺傳） character and life experience. They did a study of two-month-old babies. Of every five babies,one was very active. Some people become shy because of what has happened to them. For example,children who are always blamed (責(zé)備)by their family can be shy. But good experiences can help sensitive children become active.

    Shy people may feel that they have a disadvantage in their social life and their work. But shyness can be an advantage. Many shy people have good characters. They are gooasfriends because they listen more than they talk. They are much less likely to cheat or lie even when they think they cannot be caught.

    Da Costa was a child of the streets of Fortaleza,Brazil,whose future seemed hopeless. Then she saw a ballet performance by students from a dance school called EDISCA. a irawpe (劇團(tuán)) that included other poor guys from her street. It was about the lives of Fortaleza's poorest kids who begged at traffic lights and lived on the street. “That really affected me ,” says Da Costa. “The reality in the ballet was just like mine. I hadn’t begged,but the lives I saw were very close to the life I was living."

    Da Costa went to EDISCA. and the school changed her life,as it did the lives of 800 other girls aged 6 to 19 and a few boys from Fortaleza. The school was founded in 1992 by Dora Andrade,42, ? dancer who cut short her career in the ?.S. to come home and teach girls to dance their way out of the.slwms (貧民窟) .Most of the children who enter EDISCA can't read or write. Many have health problems and are close to running away from violent homes or becoming bad children. Andrade and a staff of 36 teach them about health care,art,music,etc. But one course is a must. “Dance is the most important part of the school” says Andrade. Through dance,a seven-year-old leams about vision and order as well as creativity."

    Schools modeled on EDISCA are now open in five other Brazilian cities. Andrade’s students put on shows as far as Italy. They attract funding sources like the Washington-based Ashoka organization,a nonprofit (非營利的) group that supports 1 ,100 “social entrepreneurs” in 41 countries. Last year a $55,000 loan (貸款) from the Brazilian government let EDISCA move into a new building.

“EDISCA doesn’t form dancers; it forms people,” says Da Costa,who is now 19 and heading for college. She plans to open a dance school to pass on everything she leaned from Dora.
