First, going to school itself costs money, regardless of other forms of education. Just from the point of view of going to school, there is a lot of money. First of all, tuition is very expensive. At present, most kindergartens in China are private, and its tuition fee for one semester is conservatively estimated to be more than 15000, which still ignores the conservative price in the case of international classes. Then someone may ask me, can't I let my children go to public kindergartens? It's childish here. There are few public kindergartens in China now. You basically have to rely on luck. Although each semester is about 2000 yuan, teachers' professional attitude and teaching level are bound to be uneven. After all, you get what you pay for. Dare you give your child to an uneasy teacher? Certainly not, so most parents would rather spend more money than protect their children's learning environment.
In addition to tuition, children have to live on campus when they enter junior high school or high school. At this time, they need extra living expenses, accommodation fees, information fees and other miscellaneous expenses. Parents can't save the money anyway, and the expenditure will only increase, because you are worried that your child will not eat well and sleep well, and that others will have what he doesn't have.
Second, supporting conditions cost money. The supporting conditions here mainly refer to tools that serve the learning content, such as mobile phones and computers, as well as various teaching materials and online courses. Although electronic equipment does great harm to children, it is too extreme to boil it down to useless because children are easily addicted to it when they are young. Children always look up information, and sometimes they need to submit their homework online. If used properly, these tools can still improve their learning efficiency. Coupled with the epidemic, no one can attend classes in the classroom, and online classes may become the norm in the future. Therefore, parents should spend every penny on these electronic devices.
Third, quality improvement costs money. In addition to traditional education, more and more parents want their children to win at the starting line, so they begin to cultivate their children's specialties intensively in order to make them more competitive when they enter the society in the future. So piano, painting and early art education are all arranged. These private classes are expensive, and most people really can't afford them except middle-class families.
