Recommended verb: There is probably no one-way ticket in this world that can make people more anxious than being a parent.
In the past, many people were polite and righteous: children do not seek to be smart, they just need to grow up simply and happily and healthyly. But as society becomes more and more inclined, parents see more and more "other people's children" online, which makes people feel frightened - many children can sing and read ancient poems over one year old, and children over two years old can dance, play the piano and play guitar.
Look back and see that your child is still playing with mud. How can this not make people anxious! In fact, as long as parents start to be anxious and start to be afraid that their children will not be able to keep up with others' footsteps, they will have already entered the trap of "Chinese-style raising children".
Because I was in a hurry, the fact that young parents are raising children has become one of the hardest hit areas in China's IQ tax.
Especially those parents who have just had a baby, they are afraid of any slackness and backwardness in their investment in food, clothing, housing, transportation, and IQ and health. But expensive things do not mean they must be good, parents should "take it easy".
The first IQ tax zone: Children's food.
In order to make your children eat healthy and safely, many parents nowadays choose special "children's food" when buying food for their children. Although these products are much more expensive than others, parents are willing to save money for their children.
But are these so-called "child-specific" foods really as healthy and nutritious as merchants promote? The real situation may surprise parents!
For example, many of the more common children's soy sauces on the market are IQ tax. In publicity, many children's soy sauces are often made of organic, low in salt, and rich in trace elements. But in fact, as long as you pay attention to the ingredients list of products, you will find that the formula and ingredients of these children's soy sauces are no different from ordinary soy sauces. The only difference is that the portions are smaller and the price is higher, and that's all.
Of course, the promotion of children's foods with problems is far more than soy sauce, and there are also children's biscuits , children's milk, children's complementary foods, etc., which are all false. Here, we recommend that parents do not only look at promotions, but also look at specific ingredients lists and ingredient lists, and not believe in the one-sided words of the merchant.
In fact, paying some IQ tax, at most it will cost some money. This is not a big problem for parents, but the key is that many IQ tax parents donate not only money, but may also ruin their children's health.
The second area of IQ tax for raising children: children's supplies.
For example, the most common one is the baby walker that many parents like to buy. On the surface, baby walker can train children to walk, and at the same time allow parents to free their hands. It is a good product.
But in fact, walking car not only has no benefits, but has many disadvantages.
Research shows that children's premature use of walkers will cause poor muscle and skeletal development in children, and it is easy to form "O" or "X" legs.
In addition, when using a walker, if the parents are not well cared for, it is easy to cause other accidental injuries. Data shows that so far, there have been many reports of children being injured when they use walkers to rush down stairs.
Regarding the child’s learning to walk, the doctor recommends: the child will learn to walk by himself when he develops to a certain level. From sitting to crawling, and then walking, this is a gradual process. It is normal to have a little earlier or later, so there is no need for parents to worry.
However, when many parents think that they can avoid pitfalls without buying professional children's food or walking cart, they do not notice that the "child-raising IQ tax" has just begun.
For example, there are still tricks in some areas to detect "child trace elements". Although the country has already banned it, some health care products institutions still use the slogan of free inspections for children in order to make profits, but in secret, they are trying to promote products.
Some doctors said that as people's living standards get higher and higher, contemporary children are actually not short of nutrition. As long as you eat normally and consume enough meat, vegetables and fruits, unless the body is sick, it is unlikely that calcium, zinc, and lack of this or that will occur.
Conclusion: Children are the parents’ dear. As parents, it is understandable that they want to give their children better living conditions. But parents must not "do bad things with good intentions". When purchasing goods for their children, they must make careful choices to avoid falling into the trap of bad merchants.
In addition to the above, do you know which "IQ tax" do you have any other knowledge about raising children?
