Two years ago, Song Haoran, the 12-year-old son of Shenzhen economist Song Qinghui, jumped to his death because he could not bear the excessive pressure of studying and Xi, bringing endless pain to the originally happy family.
Song Qinghui fell into the grief and regret of losing his beloved son, couldn't extricate himself, and began to insist on writing articles every day to talk to his son in the air, in order to mourn his son, and has insisted on it for more than two years, which has become a part of his life.
This is Song Qinghui yesterday morning 353 points written:
Dad is reminiscing.
Full. You shouldn't be allowed to go to junior high school.
You shouldn't be asked to take a midterm exam.
You shouldn't be given an exam-taking education.
Unexpectedly. These are terrible things.
You've been gone for 748 days so far.
If you're still there.
Maybe it's time to take the high school entrance examination.
No. Society is a school.
It's not just about exam-oriented education.
to reach the other side.
We insist on going the different paths.
See different landscapes.
A taste of life.
Daddy has helped you remove the hanging around your neck.
Heavy book bags.
Freedom and rebirth.
The simple and unpretentious language expresses Song's father's pure love for his son, as well as his deep longing for his son, which is heart-wrenching and touching to read. One of the most unforgettable and thought-provoking sentences, "You shouldn't be allowed to receive exam-oriented education", reflects Song's father's inner guilt and disgust and criticism of the current exam-oriented education.
Noncommittal, exam-oriented education is still rampant in many places, the test-oriented nature of education still occupies the mainstream, teachers teach for exams, students learn for exams, as long as they don't die, they will teach to die, as long as they don't die, they will learn from death, and the children almost arrive at school from 7 o'clock in the morning until the evening.
When they went home at six or seven o'clock, they were imprisoned in school, locked in classrooms, rote memorization, desperate brushing of questions, repeated examinations, lack of exercise, no leisure, lack of sleep, heavy schoolwork burdens overwhelmed them, high-intensity competition made them physically and mentally exhausted, a little uncomfortable, any slightest disturbance in the outside world, emotional changes, may become the last straw that crushes their lives.
Song Qinghui said that his son Song Haoran had just entered junior high school, and the pressure of Xi in junior high school was very huge, and all kinds of homework clocking in were exhausting, and sometimes he went home carrying a heavy school bag and "made a few blood marks" on his neck.
Sadly, some children not only have to face the pressure of school test-taking education, but also have to endure a lot of pressure from their parents. You don't see, many parents hope that their sons will become dragons, and their daughters will become phoenixes, and they can't accept the mediocrity of their children, and they do everything to transmit utilitarianism and anxiety to their children, and put their wishes and unrealized dreams on the shoulders of their children's thin shoulders, and completely pin the responsibility of the glorious ancestors and prominent families on their children's high scores in prestigious schools, forcing their children to write endless homework and endless Xi make-up classes, poor children are like zombies, pushed hard by their parents on the designed line, so that many children lose themselves, lose their self-confidence, and lose the courage to live。
Why are today's children not Xi enthusiasm and motivation to learn, and their boredom is so serious?Why are there so many children nowadays who are vulnerable, depressed, and have psychological problems?Why are there many children jumping off buildings and jumping into rivers to commit suicide, and even six, seven, and eight jumps are not uncommon?
It's time for us to reflect and wake up!
