①   “A Love for Dilemma (《小舍得》),” a family TV play about three families’ different attitudes (态度) toward children’s education, leads to a popular discussion online these days. Nowadays, many parents still send their children to take various after-school training classes to learn different skills in order to make kids ready for every competition. Why are Chinese parents worried about their child’s education? What is education for? What is good education? Readers share their opinions.

②   I think sometimes Chinese parents transfer (传递) their own wishes to their children. Then, there is no end for their children to keep on learning. But parents need to understand that each child’s talents are different from one another. Perhaps all parents need to know what their kids really good at and let them be what they want to be. —Justin

③   I’m a student and I know my parents care about me a lot. It is the traditional thinking that they want to decide what’s best for their children. In their opinion, they know more than their kids and kids should always listen to them. In fact, those kids lose the ability (能力) to make mistakes and learn from mistakes. Once they meet trouble in their future, it might be very hard for them to solve it by themselves. —Lisa

④   Nowadays, lots of pupils go to extra classes after school. They often come home at 8 pm or later. And then they have to finish the homework from school. They look so tired every day. I think education should help develop their interests instead of taking away their happiness. The burden on their shoulders is now too much for their age. Parents should not push their children too hard and we should know that good grades aren’t everything. _____▲_____—Emma
