LaShawne Thomas: 我是一位拥有三个孩子的海军军官妻子,多年来一直采用夏洛特·梅森的教育理念进行家庭教育。在过去几年中,我们经历了许多重大转变,包括多次搬家、怀孕、分娩以及我丈夫的退休。这些经历让我意识到,即使在生活中经历重大变迁,也能坚持家庭教育。 我的家庭教育方法并非放之四海而皆准的处方,而是基于我们家庭的个人经验和信仰。我们选择家庭教育是因为想要给孩子灌输圣经世界观,并直接以身作则地教导他们。夏洛特·梅森的教育理念也支持了我们的选择,因为它强调将孩子的智力和灵性生活结合起来。 在频繁搬家的情况下,继续进行某种形式的家庭教育能够在一切感觉都很陌生的时候,维持一种正常的秩序感。我将家庭教育视为我的职业,需要像男性对待职业工作一样认真、有规律和准时。夏洛特·梅森也强调家庭教育中一致性的重要性,因此要养成勤奋、有规律和准时的习惯。 在应对重大转变时,我首先会祈祷,寻求上帝的指引。然后,我会制定一个计划,这个计划可以是松散的,也可以是详细的,这取决于我的个人性格。我会提前做好准备,例如提前打印好学习材料、订购书籍等。在积极应对变迁的阶段,我会给自己留出休息时间,并寻求他人的帮助。 此外,我还强调自我照顾的重要性。作为家庭教育的父母,我们的生活方式充满压力,需要进行自我照顾来管理压力的影响。自我照顾包括身体上的、精神上的和情感上的各个方面。例如,每天进行锻炼、保证充足的睡眠、保持健康的饮食习惯、进行祈祷等。 总而言之,我认为夏洛特·梅森的家庭教育理念帮助我们维持了与上帝和彼此之间的联系,从而在生活中保持身心健康。即使在面对人生的重大转变时,我们也能坚持家庭教育,并从中获得许多益处。
