The Cancer Parent
The Cancer person (June 22 to July 22) has been described as the personification of motherhood. It is true that these people love children, and make the greatest amount of fuss over them. But they are not always wise in rearing them. The Cancer father is exacting1, fussy2 and critical; and supervises his children until they become nervous and self-conscious. The Cancer mother dotes on them until they become naughty, and then she rebukes3 them too sternly. She herself is full of tempers, and has very little control over her own emotions; consequently her discipline is too severe. She is to sort of parent who is both too easy and too hard. The child never knows what is going to happen, and soon learns that there is very little justice in his or her young life. These parents give plenty of love, but their attitude is not sufficiently4 reasonable for the guidance of children, and though they are very devoted5 parents the atmosphere is too hysterical6 for complete success.
喜爱孩子,不是管理过严,就是管理过松,过于严格,挑剔管理孩子使他们觉得自卑紧张,过于松散,其实是溺爱孩子。家长情绪过于歇斯底里。
