We often hear the saying that education is considered the only way out for poor families, and this statement is not uncommon. Many parents at the bottom of society do not hesitate to make great efforts to provide education for their children in order to have a better future. They want their children to excel and work hard to escape the fate of poverty.
In low-income families, some children choose to stop their studies while pursuing a master's degree. This may be due to factors such as age, or it may be due to the need to enter the workforce to earn an income. It is indeed a difficult task for the low-income families to complete their master's studies, but there are also some children who decide to climb higher academic peaks and choose to pursue a doctorate, which is a very challenging task for the low-income families and requires more effort.
Many children from underprivileged families win scholarships through hard work Xi college, while some children work part-time to ease their parents' financial burden. These children are barely dependent on their parents' living expenses, some even earn enough to live on their finances by working part-time tutors during their college years, and some are even able to save up for the next academic year's tuition.
Recently, however, a netizen shared the experience of his relative's child, who climbed to the level of PhD. Only parents understand the huge cost they pay for it, which makes one wonder: why is this the case?
This relative's child has been the pride of the family since he was a child, and his academic performance has always been excellent, and he was successfully admitted to a 985 school, and the grand occasion of the teacher appreciation banquet reached more than 30 tables. After graduating from university, he decided to pursue graduate school and went through three exams before he was successfully accepted. In order to allow him to prepare for the exam with peace of mind, his parents even rented an apartment for him, with a rent of more than 10,000 yuan a year, plus expenses such as water, electricity and living expenses, and the cost of a year reached at least 30,000 yuan.
After completing his graduate studies, he had the idea of pursuing a doctorate, and he did not graduate until he was in his thirties. Wanted to stay in school, but started blaming parents for their inability to provide support due to a lack of connections. Soon after graduating, he disregarded his filial piety to his parents and quickly considered buying a car and buying a home. His parents once again poured their money into the help and invested all the money to buy a car and a house for him. When his grandson was born, he was estranged from his family, and the old couple had to move back to the demolition community in order to take care of the child, where they rented a house.
Thinking deeply about this netizen's narrative, I can't help but feel sad about the parents. Their children do not show enough responsibility, and despite their parents' hard work to provide for their colleges, the ultimate reward is this. A friend's younger brother is also an example, who completed his master's degree despite not climbing to a Ph.D. My friend's parents worked hard as rural people in the county seat, their children studied in the county seat, and my younger brother received expensive one-on-one tutoring in junior and senior high school, which cost a lot of money, and the parents were willing to pay for it.
Due to the average results of the college entrance examination, he can only study in a private school, and the tuition fee is ridiculously high, with nearly 100,000 yuan in tuition and accommodation for four years. Before graduation, he decided to go to graduate school without success, so he asked his parents to sponsor him to study abroad for a master's degree. The cost abroad is even greater, costing more than 300,000 yuan. However, after returning to China, due to the poor reputation of "Shui Shuo", his academic qualifications were not properly recognized.
I can't find a satisfying high-paying job, and I still rely on my parents at home, and I am stuck in a state of gnawing at old age. Despite his age, he has not been able to find a suitable job in the workplace. At the same time, my father was old enough to enjoy retirement, but out of concern about his family responsibilities, he continued to work hard to earn money. After all, the child has reached the age where you need to consider buying a house and getting married.
Filial piety to parents is the responsibility of every child, especially if the parents work hard for their children to keep them in school. Children should know how to give back to their parents and take their due responsibilities. You can't just care about your good looks, dress luxuriously, and live a comfortable life, and let your parents silently endure hardships at home. To be a human being, we must learn to be grateful and repay our parents for their hard work. At the same time, spend more time with your parents, because they need companionship more than money. Don't think that it is enough to give enough living expenses, what they want is the company of their children.
