Some cultures are so repressive they send the very people they wish to inculcate fleeing to other countries. It is a shame but it is problematic for the US educational system too.
Glad to see its still a hotbutton topic, zeldie. Couldn’t agree more.
Depressing, but a fascinating read. Thanks for posting.
Ditto what @Lindagaf said.
As I read this, I couldn’t help but think, “THIS is the country that’s supposed to overtake the United States in the 21st century?” Hmpf.
I feel sorry for those kids. I have to say, I absolutely love China, it was the best vacation of my life. I have utmost admiration for their art, culture and history. There needs to be a rethink at the highest level of the Chinese education. There is so ich intelligence and inequity waiting to be discovered. I am really mystified as to why they seem to have forgotten their brilliant and multidimensional heritage.
Argh, autocorrect. That should say ingenuity, not inequity.
