Reproach is ... Value and examples

Everyone knows the word that we will consider today. In the area of our special attention came the verb "to reproach", and this, on the one hand, is interesting, and on the other - sad. But the reader must learn the meaning of the word.

Value

From early childhood, each person can, if he sets out the goal, to collect a whole collection of misses, for which he shpynyali. At first they were scattered toys on the floor, then unlearned lessons, and then, when he grew up and got married, his wife, not his mother, began to saw him on various occasions. But do not think that only the spouses can reproach. This is not true. Authoritarian parents do this less often, criticizing their children for not eating, sitting and generally full of all kinds of shortcomings.

The reader loses patience in expectation of the meaning of the word, but according to the preliminary part, its meaning could already be reconstructed. The explanatory dictionary says the following: "To make someone reproach someone for something, put something to someone in reproach." Frankly, a vague explanation, so we will replace slightly outdated concepts in the definition of an explanatory dictionary for more modern ones. And we get, for example, this: "To reproach is to make someone comment on his behavior or to blame some of the deeds."

Well, now somehow clearer.

Reproaches are pointless

After we found out the meaning, it is worth mentioning how this educational device is effective and useful in combating human "shortcomings". The last word is taken in quotation marks, because the characteristics of people can not just be taken and smashed on different sides of the barricades. It can not be said right from the start, where is good, but where is evil. Interestingly, if you ask those who have suffered in childhood, reproach - it's good or still bad, what will be the answer?

So, blaming the child, husband, wife, parents is completely ineffective. Why? Because the scandals, and this is exactly what the systematic claims are doing, only weaken the psyche of the parties and lead to a triple resistance of the one to whom they are directed.

Talk, debate, argue and show by example where much better and more productive.

If parents ask that a teenager does not smoke, and maybe even tell very talently about what illnesses lie in wait for him, if he does not quit, but at the same time quite successfully smoke, smoking 3 packs a day, then hardly even severe reproaches Here will help.

Quite a trivial thought, is not it? But somehow it has to be reminded again and again.

We learned what it means to reproach. We hope, the reader has understood, that claims are not the best way of education.
