Dear Sir or Madam,
I don’t really agree with what parents are saying about after-school classes because they only want to have successful children.
Although some parents are right about the importance of learning at a young age, I think children should be allowed to be children and have a carefree childhood.
In my opinion, it is important for parents not to push their children too hard. I believe it is better if parents try to really understand their children’s interests and abilities first so that they will not make their children take classes that are not suitable for them.
Perhaps parents could let their children decide for themselves if they want to have any after-school classes. If children are allowed to take the classes they choose for themselves, they will benefit more from these classes. They will grow up to be not only successful in their own way but happy too.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
