Doctor Rookie Mom II: I have a primary school student at home
From birth, infancy, and kindergarten, my baby daughter has now a primary schooler. My elder daughter inherited the family tradition and developed a scientific mindset. Memorizing the periodic table and conducting science experiments are her specialties. My younger daughter, who is lively and talkative, loves to fantasize and she refuses to follow the rules. She once declared that she would not live with her mother when she grows up because she wants to raise a dog. As a doctor, I take off my white coat and face two primary schoolers at home. The experience is both uplifting and excruciating. Sometimes I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Fortunately, my considerate partner and super dad helps me take care of things. In this era, parents face unprecedented challenges in time management, personal management, children's health, moral education, and academic performance, as well as the impact and aftermath of the pandemic on society. How can parents juggle work and family, and grow together with their children in the process of parenting? Let's take a look at the story of a rookie mom and her daughter, and find inspiration in their daily lives full of laughter.
