Now it is an indisputable fact that students are under too much pressure to study. This also leads to another problem, that is, children nowadays are prone to extremes.
On May 11, a sophomore student of Chengdu No. 49 Middle School fell from a building 2 hours after arriving at the school. A young life less than 17 years old is lost and a family is broken.
This is not an accidental incident. In fact, students falling from buildings have occurred frequently in recent years. There have been several reported incidents every year. The actual number of similar incidents is far greater than those reported.
Quite a few people believe that today's children are too fragile. Can't stand the blow. The reason is that nothing like this has ever happened in our past. But in fact, this perception is extremely wrong, and it underestimates the pressure that students are under.
l Too much learning pressure
Although many people know that today's students are under a lot of learning pressure, it is difficult for those who have not really experienced this process to have a personal experience. Looking at the status of parents who help their children with homework is enough to prove everything.
The competition among students is now moving forward. To some extent, from elementary school or even kindergarten, the brutal competition has already begun, and the pressure will increase day by day in the ensuing 12 years.
In the past 12 years, whether it is weekends, holidays, or winter and summer vacations, students have no time to rest. The longer the rest day, the greater the pressure on students, and the winter and summer vacations are even used as a semester.
From junior to junior high, junior high to junior high, middle school entrance examination, college entrance examination, screening and elimination again and again, all students are always in an extremely tense atmosphere. This pressure has always existed and has not disappeared for a moment.
l There is no tree hole to return blood
It is obvious that the pressures that students in the past were under were not at the same level as those of today's students.There is absolutely no comparison. In the past, students paid far less attention to learning than they do now.
The students of the past, although they also care about their grades, are not the only way out. Going to university is just one of the ways out, and it is the way out for a small number of academic elites. Most students do not have that kind of persistent pursuit of grades, and the pressure of learning will naturally not be too great.
But now is different. For today's students, academic performance is the most important thing. You can do nothing, but you can't do anything. Otherwise, you will inevitably suffer from pressure from family, school, teachers and even classmates.
What is even more terrifying is that children have no tree holes to bleed back. They are under pressure at any time, whether at home or at school. No one can understand the hard work of taking them. Parents and teachers give them a bowl of chicken soup. , there is no means or method to relieve their pressure
l Nowadays information is more developed
Many people think that children are very fragile and have poor ability to withstand pressure. Another reason is that the information now is much more developed than in the past, and the dissemination of information Faster and wider.
In the past, people had very limited access to information. Apart from TV, radio and print media, there are hardly any other channels to receive all kinds of information.
These mainstream information dissemination channels mainly focus on transmitting positive energy, and are very cautious about some negative news reports, which need to be reviewed at various levels, especially negative news about students is rare.
The combination of several factors will give a considerable number of people the illusion that this class of students is not good enough, and that they are not comparable to those of the past.
Some reflections:
can clearly see a fact. Today's students have formed an obsession with the pursuit of grades.Achievement theory is not just talk, but a fact that could not be more true.
In order to improve children's grades, both teachers and parents have tried everything possible. Although most of them are positive encouragement, I hope that children can work hard and climb to one peak after another through hard work.
But very few teachers, especially parents, realize that there is a limit to hard work. No matter how hard ordinary people try, they can't become Newton, Einstein, they can only lift 100 pounds of people, no matter how hard they work, it is impossible to pick up 200 pounds of burden.
The most terrifying thing is that when the children have tried their best, parents always use bowls of chicken soup to encourage their children, use various rewards to stimulate their children, and even beat and scold them in severe cases.
As everyone knows, these actions of parents at this time have no benefit except to bring more pressure or even despair to the children. At this time, what children need is the affirmation of their parents, and what they need is for parents to tell their children that you have done your best, and that your parents are proud of you.
Today's children need more understanding, recognition, affirmation from their parents and face the reality. They don't need chicken soup, they need a space to relieve stress.
Anyone has a limit, especially children. Parents must pay attention to their children's mental state at all times and adjust their goals if necessary. In any case, a child's health is far more important than grades.
