Many children in the countryside can't go to school. In fact, it is not caused by a single reason. This matter is very complicated. On the one hand, due to the poor economic foundation in rural areas, on the other hand, the solidified thinking has hindered them from sending their children to receive education.
First of all, the economic foundation is not good. Although the countryside has been developing, there are still some rural families whose economic conditions are not very good. Moreover, because the educational facilities in rural areas are not perfect, parents need to go to the county town to send their children to school, so they need to pay for their own room, meals and children's tuition. This adds up to a lot of expenses, which many families cannot afford.
Secondly, there has always been a backward concept of "reading is useless" in rural areas, which deeply affects every generation. Because in their eyes, education is an activity that takes a long time to invest, and the cost is not visible in a short time, so they think it is useless to send their children to school. It is better to let them use their education time to work and earn some money to subsidize their families, so that many rural children will still not be able to go to school.
