We covet their food, their wine and their confounding ability to stay slim while consuming both...but should we be admiring the French for their parenting skills, as well?
In her very buzzy new book, " Bringing Up Bebe," American mom and Paris resident Pamela Druckerman makes the argument that the French
have a leg up
on rearing their children.
" There’s something about the way the French parent that makes it less of a grind and more of a pleasure," writes Druckerman, a former Wall Street Journal reporter. She cites a 2009 study finding mothers in Ohio think caring for their children is far less pleasant than mothers in Rennes, France.
What exactly do French parents do that’s so different from their American counterparts? A few examples:
Teaching kids patience and self-control through delayed gratification: French parents teach their children to wait for what they want from an early age-for a few minutes, usually -instead of immediately giving into kids’ demands.
"I’m now convinced that the secret of why French kids rarely whine or collapse into tantrums(发脾气)—or at least do so less than American kids—is that they’ve developed the internal resources to cope with frustration," Druckerman writes.
Sleep training often begins at birth: In France, babies are expected to be sleeping through the night by the time they’re four months old. Parents don’t ignore their babies’ cries but they do pause before responding to them.
" French parents believe it’s their job to gently teach babies to sleep well," she writes. "They don’t view being up half the night with an eight-month-old as a sign of parental commitment.
They don’t give in to guilt over spending time away from their kids; French women, believe that " it’s unhealthy for mothers and children to spend all their time together. ... Children—even babies and toddlers—get to cultivate their inner lives without a mother’s constant interference. "
It can be inferred from the passage that______.
选项
A、American parents are more responsible
B、American parents often have to be up half the night
C、French parents often ignorebabies, cries
D、French parents feel guilty spending time away from their kids
答案
B
解析
推断题。本文重点叙述,相较于美国人,法国人的为人父母之道更高明可取,但没有比较哪国父母更有责任感,因此选项A“美国父母更有责任感”不合题意。根据“InFrance,babies are expected to be sleeping through the night by the time they’re four months old.Parents don’t ignore their babies’cries but they do pause before responding to them.”这两句可知,法国父母对待孩子夜晚的啼哭不会置之不理,但通常会稍稍等待一会,以提高孩子的耐挫能力。由此可以推断只有美国父母才会一听到孩子在夜间啼哭就起来查看,因此B是正确选项。选项C“法国父母经常置孩子啼哭于不顾”显然不合题意。根据最后一段的首句“Theydon’t give in to guilt over spending time away from their kids”可知,法国父母不会因为不得不和孩子分开一段时间而感到内疚,D选项意思完全反了。
