Many western countries, such as the United States, regard children as the wealth of the country and society, respect children's individuality, and regard life itself as the most important wealth.
China regards children's achievements as the most important value pursuit. Children with poor grades think they are of low value. Good grades are superior. The concept of hierarchy is rampant. Other talents are not recognized and developed.
In western countries, the concept of equality is popular, everyone has his own value, and everyone's talents in all aspects can be affirmed and developed.
China's quality education is simplified to art and sports examination, which is utilitarian and graded. The most important goal is to get extra points, and children's hobbies and talents are rarely considered. Children are not willing to learn these things.
Western art sports is a part of life, for the sake of happiness and the sublimation of the soul.
China's family planning policy has made parents lose their ideas, and the concept of comparison is rampant. The pressure is concentrated on the children. There are too many people and limited educational resources. Only when the examination is extremely difficult can the quota be limited, so the examination is difficult and useless.
Western countries do not have these population pressures. Education and exams are very practical. India also has population pressure, and the entrance exams for good schools are similar to ours.
The practice of shirking responsibility is very common in China society. When something goes wrong, parents blame the school and the school blames the parents. They don't consider their responsibilities. Children who twist their feet in leather shoes in physical education class will sue the school.
Japan has taught children from an early age not to disturb others, but to be responsible for themselves. Even if people die in camping, they realize that natural disasters are irresistible, children can't escape, and they won't blame the school.
