Parents’ Being Slaves to the Children Parents’ being slaves to their children or “child’s slave” is nowadays a hot topic in China. It refers to many parents who have to spend a large part of their energy and income on children. These parents feel great strain under the burden of raising a child and struggle hard to make as much money as possible. The cost of raising a child in China is becoming greater and greater. But economic pressure is not the only reason that makes those parents “child’s slave”. Parents’ competing with each other in trying to provide the best possible living conditions for their children is also to blame. Retailers know it so well that infant and child commodities become increasingly expensive. If the phenomenon continues, these parents are sure to suffer from huge economic pressure, which may pose a threat to their marriages or physical and mental health. As far as I’m concerned, parents shouldn’t put so much pressure on themselves. |
