Summary: | 碩士 === 國立新竹教育大學 === 環境與文化資源學系社會學習領域教師碩士在職專班 === 103 === The passion of a young teacher is completely drained by the multiple identities and busy housework after being a mother. Frustration and anxiety are the accompaniment of conflict with children and students. With multiple identities of a mother, a teacher, and a daughter-in-law, this is a self-exploratory study on my life story.
Writing allows me finding out that the “obedience” in the childhood brings up my persistence and high standards on education. Treating family and work as the priority, the busy life regardless myself has I lose patience to accompany children. The value difference between parents-in-law and me results in serious drag between my children and me.
Through writing and dialogue, I clearly view my blind spots, clarify my education thoughts, approve my past efforts, and see a “mother” and “teacher” who urgently need space and freedom. Reading and listening to others’ life experiences broadens my horizons and ideas as well as allows me finding out the supportive strength with courage and motive to face the future. Moreover, observing merits and appreciating kindness have me see the support from my parents-in-law that we become education partners in upbringing, from competitors.
Getting out of the low ebb, getting rid of the yoke of a traditional woman focusing on parents-in-law and children, and setting free from the inveterate and rigid personal value in the childhood, the free heart leads me to find out my own education thoughts. There will be more challenges in the education; I might still be helpless and depressed, but I am learning the art to control the degree of tightness.
