My husband worked at an after school Korean school. The children would arrive an hour after school let out (3:30 pm) and study debate until 8 pm. These poor children were under a tremendous amount of pressure from their parents and were on the verge of a mental breakdown. My husband gave all the students full credit just for attending class. He would schedule one day a week to just have fun but it was extremely important that neither the school nor the parents didn’t find out. These children were between the ages of 10 and 13. We decided that all we wanted of his children was to behave and be happy. Raising a happy adult was more important to us than his children getting good grades as long as they gave education their best effort.

[@errebusaether]

The internet has a lot of information for people to find quotes. It isn’t wisdom but learnt knowledge. Wisdom is something deeply developed through overcoming their own ordeals through the many steps of griefs with in the end accepting those mistakes. But the little girl is still too young to be called wise. Knowledge, intelligence, and Self Empathy is all it takes to develop her own understanding towards her needs to convince or convey. Like intelligence, wisdom itself can vary even for geniuses. It’s unique to all people as it has their own perspectives.

[@htyzc]

@@errebusaether Internet may be full of such quotes but it takes wisdom and understanding to use those quotes at the appropriate moment She proves she has the wisdom by choosing her words at the exact time it is required. She is not just blurting stuff out. She understands those words well herself. Hence the admiration for her apparent maturity despite her young age

[@errebusaether]

@@htyzc True, indeed. She used it at the right time. But that is based on her ability to retain knowledge and understand the situation. She truly understands the meaning of those words through gaining the information through internet sources, but wisdom is gained through experience in living with a deeper understanding. While intelligence is accumulated information through the mind. It is practically intelligence that she is displaying which is fundamental to every living organism especially when she is human. In short, it’s intelligence that is the main factor for her knowledge whilst wisdom at a fundamental level is another factor for her understanding. In an ordinary person’s dictionary, she’s a wise child but to us she’s not too extraordinary in terms of wisdom. She still has a lot to live for before she’s even free from those desires. The desire causes conflict to wisdom. It’s too farfetched to call a child wise when their full of desire. I wouldn’t call myself wise either way as I am still conflicted in this life. Maybe in the far future everyone will achieve that wisdom depending on how they perceive their own pain to walk forward in fulfilling their desires. Perhaps, fulfilling your lesser desires, and your ultimate desire is the key to freeing oneself from samsara. Life is still a mystery, it doesn’t matter whether we judge others or not. In the end, we’re all the same seeking for the truth, subconsciously. My apologizes for my off topic. Hahaha.😅

I grew up the same. In China you cannot play for too long. If you do, you get left behind. We are too many, the competition is too strong. If you rest and play for too long, somebody else who doesn't and has greater resilience towards studying will get ahead, while you'll be left behind. As much as I remember feeling the same like this little girl during my childhood, I would not allow my children to play for too long either if I was still living in China. There the gov doesn't help you, one doesn't have the security felt in the westen countries, you are basically on your own. It better be a well trained "your own", otherwise you don't stand a chance in chinese society. Most people in the west will not educate their children like that. I'm not doing it either since my kids are growing in the west. But if I was living in China, no matter how much my kids would cry for free time, they will only have the free time that I allow, and that will be very little by my own understanding of what constitutes success in China. I know that later on my kids will not get ahead in life because of the free time they've had, but because of the work they had to do. It's a rigged system, you can't rest for too long, if you don't play the game, work and excell, you will get nowhere in China. Outside of China there is more freedom and one can do what one wants, inside of China there is no freedom and you will do as you're told, regardless of how much you cry. This is what my dad told me when I was little. So then I reasoned I wanted no longer to live in China. Now I enjoy more freedom and my children do too! People from the west who see this clip must understand that this girl's situation is common place for almost every child educated in Chinese society. The way the gov rules the country is the same way we rule over our children. They scrictly must obey, or else... A sad system I would say, now that I know any different.

But just because we live in a different environment doesn’t mean that things always have to be this way and are right to be this way. You can have free time, what truly matters is the time management. And I believe a good mind comes with a balance between work and rest.

A masoginistic enslavement attitude prevails and if you see in her speech, she is appealing to the loved Father side of him, unfortunately it's not there. Simply, the sooner she gets out of that hell hole the better. I wonder what their mental hospitals are like? They probably douse them up with meds and send them back to the universal slave camp called "home" There is no balance this is extreme non-civilisation which is still today thousands of years old, meaning they are thousands of years behind. Sure, they can build stuff and are brainy but not brainy enough to have any empathy - see China? See North Korea, it's basically the same dictatorship with zero understanding or human tolerance . That's is why they worship Chairman Mao, and are fed such icons as: "for the people" "for China" that's why they bomb (even today) Taiwan, which is the real and true Republic of China. Supposedly. Taiwan is a successful country with consolidated production and supply of tech and white goods and their lives and children enjoy a healthy and civilised normality compared to the red Chinese. Why do you think there are so many Chinese in the West ? Because they wanted to get the f- out off there...!!🤯 They bomb Taiwan, they fire on Tibet, and nobody knows what they are doing, they just feed their Chinese people like mushrooms. Kept in the dark and fed on bs. I feel sorry for children like this young lady and I hope she manages to get away sometime soon. Her father is so not worthy of such an admirable daughter. .........And, his daughter does not deserve such an ao of a crapola Father, which he is. And the saddest thing of all is that she actually loves her dad and tries to reason with him with respect that he does not deserve. I hope she finds friends and happiness and manages to get the hell out of there as soon as possible. I wonder what the suicide rate for kids of her age is in China today. I bet you a hundred quid - they would always blame the child. It's a sick, sick society over there.

@@michaelu8474 Nah I meant IQ. IQ is a measure of basically learning rate. People with higher IQ will learn things quicker. Doesn't mean they are better but it is what it is. Genius Babies which have very high IQ learn speech and even reading at a very quick rate. Imagine being able to retain a piece of information the first time you've read it, or remember exactly how to pronounce a word after only hearing it a few times or even once. This girl probably doesn't have genius IQ, but the fact that she can articulate and form these types of arguments at her age shows that she is probably higher intelligence than the average of her age... which is how they actually measure IQ. It is based on the average of your age group.

Lots of these discussions - are mostly framed the wrong way - For Tiger parents - The question is - would you do this to your own childhood - one extra language , music lessons , dance classes . at least one sport , extra homework tutoring - till you only had an afternoon free only per week - Who would wish this on themselves! - Same when asking rights questions - do you think very ill people should have assisted end of life - when the question should be do you think YOU should have the right to choose assisted end of life. Just because your life isn't everything you want it to be - don't live vicariously through your children. For myself I loved my winter sport - was happy to have summer free of sport - my piano lessons didn't last too long - but they were fine - Kind of wish I could play an instrument better- thankfully I was always going to do well academically - as a kid really enjoyed some school projects/homework - eg a nature study of local pond life- but that was my doing - my parents pretty hands off - except idea I could achieve what I want - they were working class - but going to Uni was so obvious from an early age for me .
