Should Children be sent to tuitions and class at early age?

Living in the current world nowadays, we have a lot of issues that regards to our daily life, our home, our country, ourselves and our friends. Today, what we are going to talk about is very early child education. This piece of article is based on all my own opinion. We know that in a human life, childhood is always very very fun and happy. It's the most stress free stage in our life. That was back then. But what happened now? Now, children were send to all sorts of tuitions for their 'so called future'. Well, we will discuss more on that. But, before everything, let's picture what childhood meant to you. For me, well, like what many people said, picture worth a thousand words, here is what my childhood looks like.

Isn't it beautiful? Well, it is. Every childhood should be as beautiful as the picture above shown. But, now, children do not have time to go out and play. They have to study instead of playing with friends or running on the field. They have to go tuitions after tuitions, classes after classes. Infinite number of tuitions and classes for them. But, do the parents think of the happiness of children? Do they feel happy or even do they want to go to that tuition or classes?

Many a times, we human do have peer pressure. Not only for a teenage, a children, an adult but, parents also are being influenced by this. What do I mean by peer pressure? Peer Pressure is defined as influences that a peer group  observer, or an individual exerts that encourage others to change their attitudes, norms, values, or behaviour to conform to other group. This do mean that the parents are having this kind of pressure that their friend's child is going to XXX tuition and so, I also have to send my child there. That is the mindset of current parenting.

Yes, I do agree on that early childhood educations are really important but is it necessary that we send our child to tuition only that they are one years old or two? They still could not speak clearly or for some child, they still could not walk. So what is the purpose that we send them there? Isn't it better if that we take care of them at home and let them be happy at least until four years old? They are still a child, for heaven's sake. Let them have fun at home and look at the growing ups. It is fun to watch. Don't be so 'gia su' for those hockkien said. 'Gia Su' is said as scared of losing.

Another thing that parents often send their child to day care. There is quite a few disadvantage of it. Parents often send their babies to day care so that they could work and earn. It is to support the dropping economics and to sustain the family. Let's stay true to ourselves. Is it more important, Money or Your Child? Often people say that when you have a child, they are your everything. That's the older generations thinking and some of the mothers now still think that way but most of the younger mothers don't think of it this way. They think that money could buy everything, including a child's happiness.

That people should be penalized and should be scolded terribly. Yes, I do not deny the fact that money is important but how can you compare your child, a living thing with money, a non-living thing? Child is cute and they makes us happy all the time. If you would not want the child, so why 'make' them in the first place? Why bring them to this world if you do not love them? Why send them to other place when you have the ability to protect them? It is very funny that most parents hire a nanny to take care of the child for them. It is a great lesson that I've learned from watching the movie "Nanny's Diary".

Being a mother is hard and taking care of a child is even harder. But look at the joy that the children brings to you and your family. Children should be staying at home until they are old enough to go to classes. Let them have a happy life and let them be happy with what they have. Being that does not mean that to spoil them with iPod or iPad but be together with them. Play with them. Love them. Take care of them. Children are angels that were brought down from the heaven. That what I always believe in.
