Life for Cathy Taylor’s three children is very busy. Their school days are busy enough. After school, though, Cathy takes the two boys from football to basketball. Then she has to take her daughter to piano lessons. The tired children don’t get home until 7 pm. They have a quick supper, and it’s time for homework.
The Taylors are like many American and British parents. They take their children from activity to activity, and try to fit as much as possible into their kids’ lives. Doctors say many children are under too much pressure. Teachers complain(抱怨) about teaching tired kids in the classroom.
Most children take part in after-school clubs. Activities include sports, language learning, music and math classes. Pushy parents are nothing new, but now parents seem to push their children a lot more. Parents see other children doing a lot of things, and they feel their own children should do the same.
Linda Miller, a mother of three in London, knows all about such pressure. “In some families, competition starts from a very young age,” she says. “Mothers send their kids to all kinds of classes when they are very young. And they are always comparing them with other children. It’s crazy. People shouldn’t push their kids so hard.
Dr Alice Green agrees. She also says that these children may find it hard to think for themselves when they are older. “Parents are trying to plan their kids’ lives for them. When these kids are adults, they might find it difficult to plan things for themselves.” Parents should learn to give their kids a bit more time to themselves. On one hand, children need organized activities. On the other hand, they also need time and freedom to relax, and they need time to do things by themselves.

Westerners think that the education ways in many Chinese families are hard to understand. Here are some examples.
Many children in China are looked after by their grandfathers and grandmothers because their parents are busy. But children need to stay and communicate with their parents.
Parents pay no attention to the rights (权利) of children. Parents should knock at the door before they go into the room of their children. (1)They shouldn’t move their children’s things before they agree. Parents should communicate with children and respect (尊重) the rights and decisions of them. Children who are not respected also do not know how to respect others.
(2) Parents often          their children          others. Most Chinese parents want their children to be successful, because it can save the parents’ face. Parents often say “You see somebody else is studying hard, what good grades they have, and what prizes they get”. This is the worst thing. It will only bring the child much harm and pain.
Many children are made to do what their parents expect, though they do not like it. For example, parents ask their children to learn to play the piano or go abroad. It should be decided by children themselves.
The more hard-working, the better. Many parents think school performance is everything. In fact, the integrated(综合)ability is so important that it will affect children all their lives.

Nowadays, more and more schools in China make rules making students wear school uniforms to school. Parents and teachers think it will make a better learning environment at school, but some students don’t like their school uniforms. So, what are school uniforms like in other parts of the world?
In Japan, boys in middle school wear uniforms called “gakuran” which have dark jackets with stand-up collars and pants. Girls, on the other hand, wear uniforms called “sailor fuku”, which look like European naval(海军) uniforms.
Most schools in England require students to wear school uniforms. Boys need to wear long grey or black pants, white shirts and school ties. Girls have the same clothes as boys, but they can wear skirts or summer school dresses during the summer term.
In the UK, uniforms were the custom throughout most of the 20th Century, but now more and more public schools stop requiring students to wear uniforms. They think uniforms make students lose their personalities(个性).
For children in many African countries, school uniforms can be a kind of pride, or a huge financial burden(经济负担). Many children have only one uniform, and that may be all the clothes they have.
