问题                      Children and Parents
Do parents owe their children something? Yes, they owe them a great deal.
One of their chief obligations is to give their children a sense of personal worth, for self-esteem is the basis of good mental health. A youngster(青少年)who is constantly made to feel stupid and unworthy, constantly compared to brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins, will become  so unsure that he (or she) won’t try at all. Of course, they should be corrected when they do wrong; this is the way children learn. But the criticisms should be balanced with praises, perhaps with a smile and a kiss. No child is ever too old to be hugged(拥抱).
Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is in charge of himself; it’s like being in a car without brakes(制动器,刹车). The parent who says "no" when other parents say "yes" sends a double message. He is also saying: "I love you, and I am ready to risk your anger, because I don’t want you to get into trouble."
Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body, and enough information about sex to balance the misinformation that they will surely receive from their friends. Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinions of others; it means being respectful to eiders, to teachers, and to the law. The best way to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will lie. A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory will think that it is all right to steal.

选项 A、tell the child that other children are doing much better than him/her
B、remind the child that he/she is not bright
C、tell the child he/she is just a grass that people won’t notice
D、help the child to build up self-confidence

答案D

解析
