Dear Sir or Madam,
I don’t agree that kids need to take after-school classes. Because all these activities can cause a lot of stress for children. It’s not good for children’s development.
In my opinion, kids should have more time to relax and do the things they really like. What’s more, I think it’s no need for parents to compare their children with others . It’s crazy and not fair. Perhaps parents should let their kids be kids. Although it’s normal to want successful children, it’s even more important to have happy children.
All in all,I believe it’s better for their future if they have more happiness.Remember, happiness and healthy are more important than grades!
