Features: Computers are not monsters, and simply opposing children from using the internet can easily provoke their resentment. We should tell children that, at the end of the day, computers are tools for us to use, not for playing. Those who learn to use them are smart, while those who only play with them are foolish. The main reason children become addicted to the internet is that parents' educational methods are flawed. Parents' love is often expressed through material generosity, while neglecting spiritual and emotional care. In family education, principles must be upheld firmly, while minor issues should be approached with tolerance and understanding. Parents should communicate with children as friends. Pay close attention to choosing the right timing, perspective, tone, and expression. In reality, the behind any principle is simple, but how to make children accept it willingly is a different matter altogether. Parents often say they are heartbroken over their children's shortcomings, but steel is "forged," not "hated." Therefore, when educating children, parents must possess great patience.
