We'll finally grow up someday, leaving our parents and facing the challenges in life. Parents may not be able to solve every problem for us. Instead, we should have enough life skills to deal with the problems that we meet. This is what our country tries to do now—helping more students get working spirit.
To stress(强调) the importance of hardworking spirit education among students of different ages, the Communist Party of China Central Committee(中国共产党中央委员会) and the State Council(国务院) released(发布) a guideline(指导纲要) in 2020.
The guideline calls for students to respect work. Students should learn basic(基本的) life skills and form good working habits through such education.
The government has been trying to stress the importance of hardworking spirit education. But this has been overlooked in recent years. Many teenagers do not know the importance of working hard, and they are not interested in doing so.
According to a study of nearly 3,000 students in 25 schools in Hunan last month,only 20 percent of primary and middle school students help with everyday chores around the house.
As children's first teachers, parents should also encourage children to learn how to do chores at home. Students should master one or two life skills every year. These skills can include cooking, washing their own clothes and tidying their rooms.
