Love and Logic' formula
比尔盖茨传授育儿秘诀
Billionaire Bill Gates said he and his wife follow a 1970s "Love and Logic" parenting model.
亿万富翁比尔盖茨近日表示,他和妻子遵循上世纪70年代的"爱和逻辑"养育模式。
The core idea of their philosophy is centered on the idea that exerting emotional control, essentially minimizing emotional reactions like shouting or reprimanding kids.
这种模式的核心理念是情绪控制,最大程度地减少大喊大叫、训斥孩子等情绪反应。
Aside from reining in hot-blooded parent tempers, the model also stresses the importance of not leaning into rewards for kids, but instead demonstrating unconditional love and admiring kids for who they are, not what they do (or don't) achieve.
除了控制父母的激烈情绪外,这种养育模式还强调不要依赖物质奖励,应该表达无条件的爱,赞美孩子本身,而非他们的成就或失败。
Parents should focus on asking questions of their kids and getting them to think about how to solve their own problems, instead of feeding them answers.
父母应该以向孩子提问为主,引导孩子思考如何自己解决问题,而非直接提供答案。
