OpenF2F Class Notes 9th August (Celeste)

Original

There is a Chinse story about a farmer who pull up the rice shoots in fields to help them grow fast, which backfired on the rice shoots that all withered. It tells us that everything in the world should follow the natural rules to develop. If we eager to promote their growth, we will get the adverse results.
As we all know, education becomes more important in this age. Due to the importance of education, many parents want their children to learn more than other children in advance. Large amount of early education companies are established throughout China to appeal to parents . Children who are from 3 to 6 years old, some of them even wearing diapers , are sent to these companies by parents to learn maths, English ,drawing and so on. Many parents ignore developing children’s characters and helping children maintain good habits, but pay more attention to knowledge that children can get. I think sending children to early education companies to gain over loaded knowledge is breaking the rule of children’s growth and same as the Chinese story that I mentioned above, sometimes it may affect their happy childhood.

There is a Chinese story about a farmer who pulls up the rice shoots in the/his fields to help them grow faster, which backfired on the rice shoots because they all withered. It tells us that everything in the world should follow the natural rules to develop. If we are eager to promote their growth, we will get the adverse results.

As we all know, education is becoming more important in this day and age. Due to the importance of education, many parents want their children to learn more than other children in advance. Large amounts of early education companies and schools are established throughout China to appeal to parents. Children who are from 3 to 6 years old, some of them even wearing diapers, are sent to these companies by parents to learn math, English, drawing and so on. Many parents ignore developing children’s characters and helping children maintain good habits, and instead pay more attention to the knowledge that children can get. I think sending children to early education companies to gain over loaded knowledge is breaking the rule of children’s growth. Same as the Chinese story that I mentioned above/before/previously, sometimes it may affect their happy childhood.

In this day and age = in modern times
