130"How children are socialized today determines the destiny of society. Unfortunately, we have not yet learned how to raise children who can help bring about a better society."
此题可分为两方面论述:一是孩子的社会化是否决定社会的命运;二是我们是否有有效的手段教育孩子。
Undoubtedly, it is of extraordinary importance not only to teachers and parents but also to every member within the society, that how children are socialized today, which "determines the destiny of society". Yet, we have not found out a definite answer to this question.
I think, first of all, it is because we ourselves even cannot draw a clear picture of the perfect society in the future. All we know is several individual elements of the fundamental characters of the better future, such as democracy, justice, open etc. However, how to combine them together effectively? Will all those principles we think meaningful today will still work tomorrow? These questions are in a sence beyond our intellegence. Then how can we educate our children about something we do not thoroughly know? When your innocent son asks you :” Dad, how can we know polygamy is still kind of evil when someday in the future the number of men become twice as much as that of women?”, I think, the answer that “It never gotta happen” is not such an answer as to help children socialized, while this is the unique answer.
In addition, unlike math, physics or literature, the course named socialization is not a course in which children can write down main principles on their notbook and take excercises backhome for further training, and then can improve themselves. Children should enter the real society to encounter all kinds of people and things, good or bad. Only in this way can children learn real lessons. But meanwhile, it is the way out the triditional education’s controll. So the special socialized chatacteristic of socialization education makes it a Gordian knot to us all.
Finally, every child has his or her own outlook of the value and the world. Even though not matural, it will lead to the diversification of the world, which is an important quality of a better siciety. However, there lies some possibility that our intentional socialization education will efface such kind of difference in children’s thought, because we tell every children what they can and cannot do, what society is a good society, you everyone should follow this way and construct that kind of society. Were this to happen, it would be a tragedy to society and to humanity. So each child need a individual course of socialization education which is specially designed for him or her, while it is neither feasible nor possible to force every couple of parents and every teacher to take the pain to do this. So it is another difficulty of the children-socialization problem.
Even though the task seems beyond our ability as presented above, it does not mean that we should just let it be. Still there is something we can do to help the children in socialize themselves. Help to set up a sense of social responsibility is to be first concered. Tell them to help the old man who wants to cross the road, tell them not to destory the public property, these are basic things but not ignorable, because it is these little things that construct the social mind in children’s brain. Again, the skill to communicate with others and the ability to learn new things are equally important. Nevertheless, it is a painstaking process for everyone to grow sociallized. The children themselves are ought to be the main force to solve this task, while we should do the best to help them.(by zclx) |
