In my opinion, I don’t really agree children have all kinds of after-school classes on their weekends or holidays.
I have several reasons for this. First, Although it’s sometimes good for children to start learning from a young age, children should have time to relax and think for themselves. Second, Parents should let their kids be kids. Much pressure is not good for children. It’s even more important for children to be happy and relaxed. Moreover, I think it’s better that parents shouldn’t compare their children with other children. It’s crazy and not fair.
All in all, it’s important to have a happy child than a successful one.
