对比伤害孩子 Comparing Hurts Children

It is natural for every parents to be proud of their excellent children. Especially when many parents sit together, the comparison between kids is inevitable. Foreign parents know how this hurts the children, while most Chinese parents don’t. The comparison of children should be stop.
每个父母都会很自然的为他们出色的孩子感到骄傲。特别是当很多家长坐在一起聊天时，孩子们之间的对比就变成是不可避免的。外国的父母知道这会伤害孩子，然而大多数中国父母却浑然不知。孩子们之间的对比应该停止。

Take me for example. When I was very small, my mother sent me to learn dance class, because she hoped me could dance well. So when she communicated with other moms, she would ask me to dance in front of them. I felt so awkward, and just wanted to find a hole to dig in. These situation happened many time, until some day, I said to my mother how I felt about this and I did not like being compared. She realized the problem and stop doing it again.
以我为例。在我很小的时候，我妈妈送我去学习舞蹈课，她希望我能够善于跳舞。所以当她和其他妈妈聊天的时候，她会叫我在她们面前跳舞。我觉得很尴尬，只想找个洞钻进去。这样的情况发生过很多次，直到有一天，我跟妈妈说出了我的感受，我不喜欢被比较。她才意识到这一问题，并且再也没有叫我这样做过。

Since my mother lets me go, I am so happy and live the way I am want. I no longer have pressure. Now I can do what I want and she understands me. Though I give up dancing, I do well in painting. My talent is painting and I have won many awards. This is the thing that my parents should be proud of.
自从我妈妈给了我自由，我就很开心，用自己的方式过自己想过的生活。我不再有压力。现在我可以做我想做的事，她也理解我。虽然我放弃了跳舞，但是我画画得很好。我的天赋是绘画，我赢了许多奖项。这才是我父母感到骄傲的事。
