What do you think of daddy race ?
How do you define "good education "?
Chinese parents do everything for their children./ don’t lose at the starting point , admission to a key school means a key tosuccess ,a better future . 300,000 yuan per square meter, it is crazy,considering the shabby house at school district. Not big enough to accommodatethe whole family, buy it as a admission ticket rather than a place to live. Yearsago, in order to access good school, parents bribed the headmaster or teachersto get their children admitted. But when enrollment is based on residency,school district housing popped out as a way to good schooling. Is it worth it? Spend5 m on a shabby house, to get admission to a good school?
I understand the anxiety of parents, they just wantto do everything for their children, but a good school doesn’t guarantee a goodfuture. What is the really important thing education? I will cite two examples.An article named “sorry, my son, I cannot afford a 8 m school district housing”went viral on wechat , triggered a heated discussion . Parents discussed whatis a good education? a good school ? It is only part of education. Vision ismore important than school district house .
It reminds me of the novel “born a crime” ,Trevor was a blend color boy with a black mother , and a white father . at theperiod of apartheid , he was born a crime . When black people are discriminatedand prohibited to do things as white people do. He has a great mother, insteadof doing as other black people, his mother took him to movies, skating, went topark, do things as white people do. Not because we are poor or we are black, weare open to any possibilities. She was preparing me to live a life of freedomlong before we knew freedom would exist. Imagination matters, possibilitiesmatters. Never limit our dream, limit our vision. Never say that we are poor sowe cannot do this or that, but allow our children to see a world full of possibilities.Tell our children that we work hard for a better life. There are possibilities tochange our life.
