Hungarian to English: Fegyelem vs büntetés / Discipline vs punishment
Source text - Hungarian Fegyelem az egyik leggyakoribb téma a szülői, nevelési úton. Minden felelős szülő a saját gyerekéből önálló, becsületes, felelős... személyt szeretne faragni.
Ezen az úton minden szülő e cél elérésének különböző módját látja a legmegfelelőbbnek.
Sokszor lehet hallani: „Engem testi fenyítés ért gyermekkoromban, és most van valami bajom?”. Arrol nem gondolkodva, hogy az a személy sikeresebb lehetett, jobban teljesíthetett volna... Emlékezzünk a madagaszkári közmondásra: Hogyha a verés megtaníthatna valakit valamire, akkor az ökör lenne a legokosabb.
Tovább: „ Attól a sok dumától a gyerekek majd a fejünkre másznak!”, egészen addig hogy: „Hadd rá, azt csináljon amit csak akar! Az élet úgy is elég nehéz, hadd élvezze legalább most még fel nem nő”.
Mindegyik a felsorolt módok közül, egy-egy időszakban könnyek, kimerültség, frusztráció és elégtelenségig vezet. Gyerekek pedig, éppen olyanoká válnak, amitől a legjobban féltünk – agresszívak, önállótlanok vagy nem magabiztosak.
Translation - English Discipline is one of the most common leitmotif that are placed in the way of parenting.
Every responsible parent wants for their child to grow up to be an independent, honest and responsible person. Only, every parent sees different ways to reach this goal. Often is that we hear: ‘I was punished physically when I was a
child. Can you tell there is anything wrong with me now?’ Without considering whether the person in question would have been more successful in their life if they weren’t
suffered a routine of corporal punishment. Here, one could recall the Malagasy proverb:
If spanking someone could teach them a lesson, then the oxen would be the smartest one.
Then, you are maybe familiar with: ‘These discussions do no good! It will only make our kids climb to the top of our heads!’ And so on in a similar manner, all the way to: ‘Never
mind, let him do what he wants, life is already tough and hard enough. Let him be, while he can still enjoy not being an adult.’
Each of these models of tutoring can lead to tears, exhaustion, frustration and
unsatisfactory results. Raising children this way is the best way to raise an aggressive, insecure and overall incomplete adult person.
Serbo-Croat to English: Disciplina vs kažnjavanje / Discipline vs punishment
Source text - Serbo-Croat Disciplina je jedna od najčešćih tema koje se postavljaju na putu roditeljstva. Svaki odgovoran roditelj želi da od svoga deteta formira samostalnu, poštenu, odgovornu... osobu.
Na tom putu svaki roditelj vidi drugačije načine kako da stigne do svog cilja.
Neretko će se čuti: "Mene su tukli i šta mi fali?". Ne razmišljajući da li je ta osoba, ipak, mogla biti bolja, uspešnija... Prisetimo se madagaskarske izreke: Kada bi batine nekog mogle da nauče pameti, najpametniji bi bili volovi.
Zatim: "Od tih razgovora, samo će nam se deca popeti na glavu!", i tako sve do: "Ma, pusti neka radi šta hoće! Život je ionako težak, pa neka sada uživa dok još može.".
Svaki od navedenih načina u nekom periodu dovodi do suza, premora, frustracija i nezadovoljstva, a deca na taj način najlakše postaju baš ono čega smo se najviše i pribojavali - agresivna, nesamostalna ili nesigurna.
