3 Things you never knew about parenting
Some parenting rules seem like no-brainers: Praise your kids. Teach siblings to be nice to one another. But what if these guidelines are actually doing more harm than good? For their new book, Nurture Shock: New Thinking about Children, journalists Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman waded thorugh decades of studies and talked to hundreds of researchers to find the facts about how children learn, what motivates them, and how parents can help them grow into happy, well-adjusted adults. Here, Bronson, a father of two discusses some of the most startling discoveries.

hehehe... ask every parents today, do they remember how it feels to lie to their parents long time ago? The law states that, You Get Back What You Put Out. Even if its long time ago, we'll definitely see later that our children might also doing exactly the same thing as we all had did. :)
I'm very curious about the by telling your children they are smart is hindering them... how do you guys feel about that
Well, i think it's okay to praise a child if he does outstanding work in his studies, but don't go overboard or over-exaggerate his achievements, and let him know that he shouldn't be ashamed if he gets it wrong sometimes, because that is all a part of the process of learning. We can't be right all the time, but that we learn from our mistakes.
nice posting
