Reader comments
This book is very good! I especially like Rousseau's educational philosophy. He emphasized allowing children to develop freely instead of blindly cramming education. This reminds me of a friend of mine. She is very relaxed about her children's education, and her children are very happy and confident. However, I kind of disliked the rich boy in the book. I felt he was a bit willful and selfish. However, this also made me more aware of the importance of education. We must strive to make children become caring and responsible people. Have you read this book? I think it's very inspiring for parents.
Develop freely and let nature take its own course, so that children can learn how to behave through the cultivation of their nature. The educational philosophy of this book is indeed worth learning
I have benefited a lot. I remember the education I received when I was a child. Sometimes I really wish I had a mentor to enlighten me.
