'The method of young education of Jewish mothers is quite special. They give their children "love of fire" - the rekindling and encouragement, not just the sense of security, the kind of "love of the womb" like most Vietnamese mothers ".

The Jewish mother says 'parents are 100 points not equal to 80-point parents' . There are three things that a mother should not do to her: No satisfaction first; No immediate gratification; Unsatisfactory beyond your requirements.

"Parents hide 20% of their love to become rational, scientific and artistic in their way of teaching. In Israel there are aristocratic schools but train and train students to know the difficulties and challenges. There is one indicator that parents highly appreciate in children is AQ - the index of overcoming difficulties. The better the better the house needs to train this indicator.

The Israelis made their own formula for their AQ overcoming difficulties : 20% IQ + 80% (AQ + EQ) = 100% success. (IQ: intelligent index, EQ: emotional index). They believe that good grades mean good schools, good schools will have good degrees, good degrees will have good jobs, but good jobs are different from those with successful careers.

Jewish mothers always remember the maxim 'Book Donkey' , the intention to send a message to the children that: 'If reading only without using it in life, then it is only wisdom to die. '.

In addition, the Jews also have a famous saying: "parents do not be butlers and let them be masters", say, just guide, advise your child, do not cover and do things for your children . Absolutely do not fall into the disease 421 (4 grandparents, 2 parents surrounded a child) because that is no different parents are willing to be their slaves and only poisoned children only. (Ms. Meirav Eilon Shahar, Israeli Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary in Vietnam).

Wherever the world is, parents and teachers are always a close role model of children, so there is a natural and meaningful connection between parents and children.

Today's education is more complex than before. The world today changes rapidly and parents sometimes do not catch up. Children can access more information, sometimes one step ahead of their parents, they become more independent and parents cannot impose, but still have to maintain their position as a leader, a guide.

There is one thing that needs to be done is that children need to be respected. Parents encourage children to come up with their own ideas, can go out of normal patterns, even argue with adults. Encourage your children to ask questions to help their children always be creative and flexible . Encourage their children to participate in extracurricular activities for children to promote their inclinations and forte.

Children outside the obligation also have the rights: to be respected, to be defeated, to have opinions.Should be responsible for children but only just because children always need to have fun. Parents create the best conditions for their children, who want their children to be successful but only as counselors, counselors and not forced.
