I learn from my life #1

I thought it's just a theory; since i haven't had a child yet.
But no..it wasn't! it really can be dangerous.
From now on, please parents...stop labeling your child with a bad label!!!

Yesterday,as usual, i gave French private course to a seven-years-old child.
seperti layaknya anak-anak, dia kadang suka ga serius belajar dan pengennya main. But i think it's normal, isn't it? mungkin dia lagi bored or tired, jadi dia keliatannya males-malesan. so, aku kasih dia games yg related sama subjectnya. tapi his parents keknya terlalu menuntut sehingga si anak jadi stress dan takut untuk gagal. kalo dia ga bisa ngerjain soal, dia bilang "aku bodoh". Aku bilang ke dia "ga papa kok kalo ga bisa ngerjain, namanya juga belajar kan supaya bisa".

And yesterday, he said:
"aku kan payah..."
"aku bodoh..."
"aku nakal.."
"aku ga pinter.."

Oh My God! anak sekecil itu..saying those words...
how many times i tried to convince him that he's not stupid, he's not naughty, he's not suck..
but i failed..
dia bilang, "my parents selalu bilang aku nakal...aku ga pinter..."
*hiks...*

Please parents, parents to be..give your children a positive encouragement..

Sekedar renungan..aku mengutip dari buku Psikologi Komunikasi:

Children Learn What They Live

If a child lives with criticism, he learn to condemn
If a child lives with hostility, he learns to fight
If a child lives with ridicule, he learns to be shy
If a child lives with shame, he learns to feel guilty
If a child lives with tolerance, he learns to be patient
If a child lives with encouragement, he learns to be confident
If a child lives with praise, he learns to appreciate
If a child lives with fairness, he learns justice
If a child lives with security, he learns to have faith
If a child lives with approval, he learns to like himself
If a child lives with acceptance and friendship, he learns to find love in the world.

I'm #2827

I went to this site
and copied:

BYOB - in other words Bring Your Own Bag with you the grocery store, farmers market, and retail stores. Not only will you be reducing the amount of plastic you are consuming but you will be showing fellow shoppers, and store owners how easy it is to stop using plastic.

Pay attention to all the other plastic that you are consuming in the form of beverage bottles, food wrapping, product containers, and toys. Take it to the next level:

1. Bring your own mug to the coffee shop.
2. Use a reusable water bottle.
3. Buy beverages in glass and products packaged in cardboard or some other renewable resource.

Our planet is choking on plastic, but you can make a difference.

Dove

Udah satu bulan ini ganti sabun mandi pake Dove shower cream karena *korban iklan* kalo pake sabun biasa kulitku jadi kering apalagi pas bagian tangan. Entah memang betul ato hanya sugesti, setelah pake Dove kulit tangan terutama kulit deket kuku jadi ga kering lagi. Tapi sekarang jadi ragu dengan Dove setelah liat video ini.
