"Studying... is naturally the most important thing, but the child is now in adolescence, and the age of fourteen or fifteen is still considered a rebellious period.
You, try your best to spend some time with your child, don't just focus on letting her study and read all day long."
When Xue Heng heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Her studies are already terrible! If this continues, I'm afraid she won't even be able to go to an ordinary high school."
"Is it that bad?"
Xue Ling asked anxiously.
Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's not an ordinary job.
This child is extremely beautiful, and you can tell from one glance that she is a smart girl, but she is not the material for studying.
Her parents are both intellectuals. Her father was always among the best when he was studying. We parents never had to worry about his studies.
But I don’t know who this kid looks like. His grades have been going downhill since the fourth or fifth grade of elementary school.
At the end of last semester, she failed several subjects. If Ah Heng hadn't insisted on letting her repeat the grade, the principal and teachers kept saying that she had to repeat the grade because she couldn't keep up."
"Is it that bad?"
Xue Ling asked: "Is it the second year of junior high school now?
How many classes are there in the first year of junior high school?
Failed several subjects?
Isn’t it?”
"yes."
Xue Heng replied: "Except for music and art, all major subjects are basically unqualified.
Geography, history, politics, etc., it seems that I only passed one subject with a score of 60 or so, and the others all passed with a score of 30 or 40."
Xue Ling: "..." Mrs. Chen smiled helplessly: "There is nothing we can do! This child goes into the house to do her homework when she comes back from school. She has classes from Monday to Friday and makes up classes on Saturdays and Sundays. She insists on studying and doing them.
But it just happened that I couldn’t learn well.
Maybe, she was not born to study.
I told A Heng that we must look away and don't force the child.
People have similar intelligence, but their academic performance is very different. Some people are born to be good at learning and can do well in exams without much studying.
Some people study hard, but they may not learn well."
"Even if I don't look away, I have to look away!"
Xue Heng looked hopeless: "She is either in class or doing homework all day long, but the teacher said that she wanders in her mind every day. She is obviously sitting in the classroom obediently, but she never listens carefully or takes in what the teacher says.
in mind.
The exams were all done through blindfolding, and the test papers were almost blank except for the multiple-choice questions.”
Xue Ling couldn't help but ask: "Then... you haven't thought about repeating the grade?
What did A Fang say?"
"Can't repeat the grade."
Xue Heng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Even if she stays for a few more years, she will probably be just as bad.
It's better to let her finish reading as soon as possible and learn a skill later.
Ah Fang was very worried and anxious. All day long, Mandi asked famous teachers and outstanding teachers to give Xiaohan extra lessons.
I know that she is also doing it for her children's benefit and strives for them to improve to some extent.
But I feel that the effect is very little, and it is not even possible to be 'better than nothing'."
Xue Ling felt uncomfortable hearing this.
Xiaohan seems to have a serious problem! Xue Heng rubbed his temples and sighed repeatedly.
"Sometimes when I look at her transcript, I can't help but doubt life.
How could I have given birth to a daughter with such a poor education... I really can't stand it, I can't accept it at all, but I have to accept it."
Mrs. Chen stopped and said, "Don't talk about the child like that, Xiaohan is actually very well-behaved.
It’s just that I wasn’t born to read, that’s why I read so poorly.
It is good enough for your children to be healthy physically and mentally. Don't expect too much.
At our age, we have seen through everything.
Reading well does not necessarily mean you will live a better life.
Xiaohan is good-looking and handsome. She just needs to learn some artistic skills in the future.
Ah Heng is just a daughter like her. From now on, all the family property will belong to her, so she doesn’t have to work hard to make money. It’s enough to find a small, leisurely job to live a stable life.”
Xue Ling swallowed his saliva and hesitated to speak.
Xue Heng, who was lying on the sofa beside him, smiled bitterly: "Mom, my child is only a teenager. It's not good for you to say such things in front of her, otherwise she will be even less willing to work hard."
"She has worked hard enough."
Ms. Chen whispered distressedly: "I have classes from Monday to Friday. I go out at around six in the morning during the day and get home at around six in the evening.
After dinner, I go back to my room to study and go to bed at ten o'clock in the evening.
I have to go to cram school on Saturdays and Sundays, so I don't even have any time to play.
The child is like this, what else do you want from her?
Didn’t you say everything?
It’s not that she didn’t work hard enough, it’s that even though she tried hard, the effect was minimal.”
"That being said, you can't say that in front of her."
Xue Heng reminded again.
Mrs. Chen glared at her eldest son angrily and said: "Nowadays young people like to popularize the idea of 'lying flat'.
If it weren't for being too tired and uncomfortable, how could a young person pursue lying down? He would definitely not be able to bear it.
Today's children are under a lot of pressure to study and even more pressure to work.
Don’t worry too much, it’s enough for your children to be healthy and happy.”
Xue Heng sighed helplessly and gave Xue Ling a finger.
Xue Ling leaned toward him and heard him murmuring in a low voice: "Xiaohan is running around studying now, spending more than an hour on the road every day.
A while ago she told me to buy her a small house next to the school so that it would be convenient for her to go to and from school.
I don't dare to agree. She has been pestering me for the past two days to agree.
Lingling, are there any properties near No. 4 Middle School that you are familiar with?
Do you have a house over there?"
"Uh..." Xue Ling shook his head: "No."
Even if she had it, she wouldn't lend it out, and it would be impossible to sell it.
Xue Ling glanced at him and said: "What did I say just now - the child is in the rebellious period and needs the company and attention of his parents.
She is a teenage girl. Do you think she can live alone?
The consequences of leaving things alone will be serious, and there is no doubt that the tiger will be let go."
Xue Heng reluctantly explained: "I feel bad too, but she begs me every day.
I would definitely not worry about letting her live outside the school.
Either Ah Fang goes to live with her, or hires a full-time nanny for her."
"Will not work!"
Xue Ling shook her head firmly: "You can't agree.
Ah Fang works in a television station and is never on time. Sometimes she works for more than thirty hours in a row and cannot take care of her at all.
She is so old, the nanny can only help with cleaning and cooking three meals for her, but there is no way she can help you discipline her or counsel her."
"No way?"
Xue Heng brushed his hair irritably and whispered: "I've been exhausted both physically and mentally recently, and I can't really care about her too much.
A Fang told me a while ago that she will have a month off when she returns from this business trip. At that time, she will take Xiaohan to live there and try her best to help Xiaohan with her homework.
This allows me to devote myself to taking care of the two elderly people without having to worry about one and the other."
"Did Xiaohan dye her hair?"
Xue Ling asked with his eyes flashing slightly.
Xue Heng shook his head blankly: "No...why do you ask so suddenly?"
