Quote by Wu Xiaole

“Saya paham Nyonya penasaran dengan cara saya mengajar, tapi berdasarkan pengalaman saya, setiap ada sang ibu di sekitarnya, anak-anak akan berusaha menyenangkan Ibu mereka. Karena itu, kualitas belajar mereka akan menurun. Kasus ringannya seperti mereka tidak berani mengungkapkan isi hati dengan jujur.

“Golden sees parental uninterest in collective solutions as part of a larger “decline in the social contract”… "As a scholar, I'm very disturbed that we have more [media] articles about toxins in the home than the fact that we don’t have universal prenatal care, she says. “We’ve moved from collective concern about infant and child welfare into this very privatized focus on “my child” and this intensive child-rearing.”
