8-10EMF
For sure, like the most positive thing about my wife and her mom is that I know she’s always going to be healthy, she’s always going to be full, she’s always going to be safe. And I think those are like the most important things. And then now that she’s older, we’re kind of adding education to that. That is like one of the things that we struggle with the most.
Just the idea of like how much education a kid needs or how much time an eight-year-old should spend doing math every day, how much time they should spend studying Chinese and how much you balance that with like play and fun, ballet, music, things like that. I would say across the board here in mainland China, I mean, play and fun is not something in the vocabulary of someone in primary or, you know, middle school. They slog through tests. Some are driven to suicide.
You know, this stress level is… It’s something that we’ve never dealt with. I would say the pressure that they put on them, especially as they get into high school, the years that they’re transferring into college and these tests that they have to take. I know there’s some big ones. I know that the pressure that these students have to be successful. I mean it can make or break them as far as like their whole future.
当然，我妻子和我岳母最好的地方就是，我知道孩子一定是非常健康的，孩子一定是吃得饱的，孩子一定是安全的。我觉得这些是最重要的事情。之后现在孩子长大了，我们要考虑教育的事情。教育是我们遇到的最费劲的事情之一。
教育理念，像孩子需要受多少教育，或者一个8岁的孩子每天应该在数学上花多少时间，学中文花多少时间。你要怎样平衡孩子玩耍和娱乐、芭蕾舞、音乐等等这类事情的时间。我想说，整个中国大陆，在小学生或者中学生眼里就没有玩耍和娱乐这两个字眼。他们艰难地通过测试，甚至有些孩子被逼自杀。你知道这种压力的程度是我们从来没有遇到过的。家长给他们压力，尤其是当他们进入了高中，而高中是他们要准备进入大学的几年，他们必须要做那些测试。我知道中国有些重要的考试。我知道这些中国学生承受着必须要成功的压力。我的意思是，这种压力可以影响他们的未来，但也可以摧毁他们。
