Xa befikelela kwiminyaka elishumi, uninzi lwabantwana selulukhulele uhlobo lweethoyi zeerobhothi ozalatha uzicofe, ezaziphantse zibe ngumlingo kwiminyaka esixhenxe okanye esibhozo. Utshintsho aluthethi robhothi ikhazimla ngakumbi, luthetha ukuba ngubani owenza ukucinga. Kwiminyaka esibhozo, ikhithi elungileyo iqhuba imiboniso ekhokelweyo ize ibhiyozele iimpumelelo ezincinci. Kwiminyaka elishumi, loo mntwana mnye ufuna ukwakha into eyeyakhe, abhale ikhowudi encinci yokwenene, aze enze irobhothi isabele kwilizwe ngeesensa. Isifundo esiluncedo kubazali: khetha ikhithi onokuyandisa, kungekhona leyo uza kuyitshintsha kunyaka ozayo.

Yintoni etshintshayo ngokwenene phakathi kwesi-8 neli-10

Abantwana abaneminyaka esibhozo basebenza kakuhle xa kukho ulwakhiwo oluthile: tsala iibhloko ezimbalwa, cofa udlale, ubukele isihamba. Loo mpumelelo ibalulekile, kwaye akufanele iphele. Into eyongezwayo kwiminyaka elishumi bubunini. Umntwana oneminyaka elishumi unokugcina usukelo entlokweni yakhe imva kwemini yonke, alungise iimpazamo xa kuhambe kakubi, adibanise iingcinga endaweni yokulandela iresiphi enye. Ngoko ikhithi ifuna indawo eyongezelelekileyo: iinxalenye ezininzi, iindlela ezininzi zokuzidibanisa, neengxaki ezingenampendulo inye nje ilungileyo.

Ukusuka kwimiboniso ukuya kwiiprojekthi

Owona mqondiso ucacileyo wokuba umntwana sele elungele inqanaba elilandelayo kukudinwa yimiboniso egqityiweyo. Kule minyaka, iiprojekthi zoyisa imiboniso. Endaweni yokuthi yenza isibane sidanyaze, usukelo luba kukuthi yakha irovha emayo phambi kokuba ibethe udonga okanye bala amaxesha ucango oluvuleka ngawo. Ikhithi eyimo yerovha iluncedo apha kuba inika umzimba onokuprogramwa: amavili, iisensa ezimbalwa, nendawo eyaneleyo yokuqhubeka usongeza. Iiholide ezinde zikaDisemba lithuba elihle lokwakha into enye enkulu endaweni yemisebenzi elishumi yemizuzu emihlanu.

Iibhloko kuqala, emva koko ukuzanywa kokuqala kombhalo

Ukubhala ikhowudi ngeebhloko asilonqanaba lobuntwana ekufuneka lugxothwe ngokukhawuleza. Luhlala luluncedo kuba lususa iimpazamo zokuchwetheza kwaye lwenza umntwana agxile kwingqiqo. Kwiminyaka elishumi, isenzo esisempilweni kukugcina iibhloko uze wongeze ukuzanywa kokuqala kwekhowudi ebhaliweyo ecaleni kwazo, ukuze umntwana abone ukuba iibhloko ezinemibala zimele imigca yokwenene. Khangela inkqubo ebonisa zombini ezi mbono zenkqubo enye. Ibhodi efana ne-sheenbot∞ yakhelwe le nto: iprojekthi enye inokujongwa njengeebhloko okanye njengombhalo, ngoko ukutsiba kuvakala njengenyathelo elincinci endaweni yokuqala phantsi.

Iisensa nengqiqo, kungekhona ii-motor kuphela

Ii-motor ziyachulumancisa ekuqaleni, kodwa yingqiqo ebamba ingqalelo yomntwana oneminyaka elishumi. Oko kuthetha iisensa, umgama, ukukhanya, isandi neqhosha, kunye nokucinga okuthi if this then that ekumemayo. Kulapho kuhlala khona iingcinga zokwenene zekhompyutha: imiqathango, izingqi, izinto ezitshintshayo, nokuvavanya uqashelo ngokujonga oko irobhothi eyenzayo ngokwenene. Xa uthelekisa iikhithi, bala iisensa uze ubuze ukuba umntwana angakha ntoni ngazo, kungekhona ukuba irobhothi ikhazimla kangakanani xa iphuma ebhokisini.

Thenga ukwandisa, kungekhona ukuphinda uthenge

Eyona mpazamo ixhaphakileyo yabazali kukuthenga irobhothi etywiniweyo eyenzelwe iprojekthi enye, uze uthenge enye kunyaka olandelayo xa umntwana selekhulele kuyo. Iikhithi ezandisekayo zibiza kancinci ngaphezulu ekuqaleni kodwa zibize kancinci kakhulu kwiminyaka emithathu. Phambi kokuba uthenge, jonga:

• Ungakwazi na ukongeza iinxalenye neesensa kamva, okanye iseti ivaliwe?
• Ingakhula na isuka kwiibhloko iye kwikhowudi ebhaliweyo kwisixhobo esinye?
• Ngaba iispare neentambo zifumaneka lula apha ekhaya? Bekela bucala imali encinci yokonakala nokulahleka kwamaqhekeza.
• Ngaba likhona iqela labasebenzisi, iiklasi, okanye uthotho lweeprojekthi olugcina umdla uqhubeka?
• Ngaba iza kusamnika umdla umntwana oneminyaka eli-12, kungekhona nje oneminyaka elishumi?

Indlela elula yokuqala

Akunyanzelekanga ugqibe yonke into ngokujonga iphepha lemveliso. Iklasi enye ikuxelela ngokukhawuleza ukuba umntwana wakho utsalelwa ekwakheni, ekubhaleni ikhowudi, okanye kuzo zombini, nokuba leliphi inqanaba elimfaneleyo. Ukuba ufuna azame ngexesha leeholide, iiwokshophu zethu zeholide ziqhuba iiseshoni ezimfutshane ezisekelwe kwiiprojekthi, kwaye isifundo sovavanyo lukhangelo lokuqala olunomngcipheko omncinci. Xa sele ulungele ukuthenga, khetha kwiikhithi ezandisekayo evenkileni uze wandise ikhithi njengoko iiprojekthi zisiba nkulu.
