Question

   How do young children learn good values? How can parents teach their children about the importance of kindness and patience? More and more parents worry about the violent images(暴力形象) their children see on TV and on the Internet. So many parents are turning to fairy tales. They want to teach their children how to behave in society by this way.

   It is believed that fairy tales have a great influence on children because they describe the two sides of good and evil(邪恶) very clearly. When children hear the tales,they learn to care about others* feelings. In each tale,they can see there are many different kinds of people in the world and that we all have a choice about what kind of person we want to be. We can choose to do good actions,rather than bad ones,in our lives.

   What kind of values can children learn from fairy tales? In The Princess and the Pea，a poorly dressed girl says she is a princess. Few people believe her,so she is given a difficult test. When she passes the test,we learn that her dream comes true because she stays true to herself. In Pinocchio，a wooden puppet(木偶) turns into a boy when he- finally leams how to tell the truth.

   Teaching values is probably the main reason for encouraging children to read fairy tales. These tales can teach children lessons about human relationships that have been accepted around the world for many centuries. This might be the reason why they have been around for so long and will not disappear any time soon.
