What's the best relationship between father and child?
It should be full of love, respect (尊敬) and feelings. A father①_____ his child and at the same time should show his respect to his child. He loves his child but keeps dignity (威信). Only love can keep the father’s dignity in the child.
Confucius(孔子) said that a father should keep a proper distance (距离) from his child. Without a proper distance, it will be ②_____ to keep a good relationship. In the relationship, the father loves the child and the child shows respect and love to the father. ③If parents live with children for long, children are easy to forget to respect their parents. So parents should not share the same room with children.
④父亲不教自己的孩子是明智的。 Certain things are better taught by others rather than the parents. For example, the teacher can tell his students to work hard. If they don’t, he will get angry. But if a father gets angry with his own son, the son may think although his father teaches him to behave, he himself does not practice what he teaches. This will make their relationship worse. And nothing is worse than the bad relationship between the father and the son. That is why in the past a father only taught other children, but not his own.
