我们今天讲快乐教育,讲我们的童年很快乐。可是,我们的童年快乐吗?至少我一点都不快乐。凭什么教育是快乐的?我实在想不通。教育里面一定有痛苦的成分,这是不言而喻的。我们凭什么对注定将要接替我们的子孙让步,我想不明白。现在,我们对孩子的教育大多是鼓励。那么,惩戒呢?教育可以没有惩戒手段吗?单凭鼓励就可以完成教育了?我也不相信。 We talk about happy education today and tell us that our childhood is very happy. But is our childhood happy? At least I am not happy at all. What education is happy? I really can not figure out. It is self-evident that there must be a painful component in education. Why do we think that we are not going to give up our children and grandchildren who are destined to succeed us? Now, most of our education about children is encouragement. Well, discipline? Education can be no punitive means? Education alone can be done by encouraging? I do not believe it.
