Extraction with... 同·萃

by KWOK Pui Yiu

In recent years, the competition in society is getting more and more intense. Many parents, for the sake of their children's future, often overly concerned about their children's academic performance. It is easy to neglect the communication with their children and forget the respect for each other, resulting in friction between them and their children very easily. This makes their relationship with their children worse and worse, and the trust of both sides continues to erode each other. Therefore, I created a series of children's picture books called "Together." I hope that by reading children's picture books together, parents and children can increase their communication. This way, they can unknowingly put themselves in the same age position as the other party and also help parents and children to extract a suitable mode of getting along with each other. By doing so, they can understand each other, respect each other, and trust each other. This is the best way to help parents understand each other. This is also the reason why I chose "Communication," "Respect," and "Trust" as the themes of my three children's picture books.

近年來,社會上的競爭越來越激烈的,不少家長為了孩子未來着想,時常過分緊張孩子的學業成績,很容易就忽略了與孩子之間的交流,忘記了對對方的尊重,引致他們與孩子之間非常容易發生磨擦,這也讓他們和孩子之間的關係變得越來越差,雙方對對方的信任亦不斷削減。於是,我創作了「同·萃」系列童話繪本,希望通過父母和孩子之間共同閱讀童話繪本的這段時光,增加他們之間的交流,讓他們能夠在不知不覺間將自己置身於與對方同歲的立場,也透過這段閱讀童話繪本的時間幫助親子之間共同萃取出適合他們的相處模式,讓他們漸漸地能夠理解對方、尊重對方、信任對方,這也是我在三本童話繪本當中選擇了「溝通」、「尊重」以及「信任」為主題的原因。

我的主要任務是創作三本繪本,用童話繪本引導家長和子女之間的交流促進他們對彼此的了解,引導他們站在對方的立場思考,讓他們能夠有一段屬於親子的時光,並尋找屬於他們的相處方式。
