A watched pot never boils.

眼睛盯着看的壶永远不会开。

A watched pot never boils, you'd better relax.

心里急躁锅不开，你最好放松一下。

As a teacher, I tell my overeager parents that a watched pot never boils. After all, constantly having their parents hovering over them will make any child nervous!

作为一名老师，我告诉我那些过于热情的父母，眼睁睁的锅永远不会沸腾。毕竟，不断让父母在他们身边徘徊会让任何孩子感到紧张！
