Social networks are indignant: the mother allowed her two-year-old daughter to paint the family Porsche (4 photos)
In the Chinese social network Weibo, a discussion broke out about modern child-rearing methods. One woman boasted artistic talent of her two-year-old daughter and told about how she allowed her paint the Porsche family car. However, together support received a wave of criticism.
A woman named Mao, who lives in Wuhan in Hubei province, told on the social network that her little daughter loves to draw and often draws houses on drawing boards. To give her more space and stimulus for creativity, her mother took her to the parking lot of her house, gave washable paint and suggested using the family automobile.
The girl painted on a white car colorful animals, fruits and various patterns. She also left colored prints of her hands on car doors.
"For my child, drawing on a car is a new experience. She just changed the place for drawing. She played with pleasure,” Mao said. — A Porsche may be valuable to adults, but for a two-year-old, it is regular car."
Later, the mother and daughter washed the paint off the car together.
Many Weibo users did not appreciate such a pedagogical approach, stating that allowing a small child to draw on such expensive car - inappropriate.
"And if a child develops the habit of drawing on any machine, which she will see somewhere?" — wrote one of the commentators. "Maybe this girl must be a gifted artist. But applying graffiti to any machine, even to one's own, sends the wrong educational signal." another stated.
However, there were those who sided with the mother: "What a problem draw on your own machine? Those who criticize them must be there's nothing else to do." "It's a creative approach to parenting. mother at once gained two benefits: the development of the child's interest and a unique experience."
In response to criticism, Mao said that she had an educational conversation and explained that drawing on other people's machines without permission adults are not allowed.
