Description

本書為荷蘭文繪本書,親子生活情緒題材。(本書譯自英文版) 「不行,我說不行就是不行!」這是親子相處時,大人很容易對孩子說的一句話!這句話充滿了管教與制止的意味,但換個角度看,誰說孩子不能用他的方式,來表達不高興、不滿,以及討厭被限制的感覺呢? 本書從一個孩子的觀點來詮釋他的生氣怒火、他的生氣情緒,以及他一連串的微妙心情變化與轉折。故事一開始,是孩子又被媽媽教訓了,孩子因而感到身體裡有一股生氣的能量,有一團熊熊燃燒的火好像要噴出來一樣。孩子於是變成了一隻噴火的恐龍,他開始到處搞破壞,把自己關在房間裡,把所有玩具都弄壞…… 恐龍開始噴出許多惡毒的話來發洩生氣的怒火,完全沒辦法冷靜思考,反正,恐龍本來就不會思考! 恐龍開始六親不認,連以前最喜歡的泰迪熊、玩具通通都不喜歡了,反正,恐龍本來就沒有朋友! 恐龍也不接受安撫,爸媽想抱他也沒辦法,因為,恐龍是很大隻、很強壯的動物,要抱,可沒那麼容易! 恐龍也不吃硬的,爸媽這下也生氣地大聲罵他,不過他根本聽不進去,反正,恐龍本來就聽不懂人話! 小恐龍覺得很傷心、很無助,不知道該怎麼辦才好!於是他開始用力哭,他的生氣怒火終於被平息、澆熄了!他又變回那個討人喜歡的小男孩了。大人問他,到底為什麼要那麼那麼生氣呢?男孩這會兒也忘了自己是為了什麼而生氣,他只知道,自己一定是有很好很好的理由,他才會變成那樣,才會變成一隻恐龍的! 孩子也是人,也有權利表達情緒,表達生活中的喜怒哀樂!本書作者藉著孩子的「他我」投射,也就是一隻生氣、到處搗亂的小恐龍,來表達孩子期待自己生氣時的所作所為都能夠被理解。而父母呢?或許除了給予孩子適當管教之外,也應該充分理解自己的孩子,尊重他也有表達生氣情緒的權利與方式。畢竟,快樂時手舞足蹈,生氣時宣洩情緒也是很自然的,不是嗎? 不過,這不代表父母就應任由孩子耍賴任性喔!請記得,父母管教孩子時,孩子因而生氣發怒,不是因為他痛恨父母或不再愛父母,而其實只是在表達他不高興被限制、被禁止的情緒罷了!孩子氣生完,情緒就煙消雲散了,往後,孩子心裡就會慢慢知道父母的要求、規矩是什麼了!這之後,不管孩子成長過程中,要變身幾次恐龍或怪獸,父母或許就比較能用同理心去了解,甚至見怪不怪了!
