Associate Professor Tsinghua University gave a fierce speech. Have elites persuaded ordinary people to accept their fate?
"My daughter is becoming an ordinary person," said Liu Yu, an associate professor in Tsinghua University. This is a sigh she felt in the process of educating her daughter. It can be seen from her education view that she seems to be disgusted with the current social education model, and even suggests that some parents give up the current education model to avoid falling into "stampede competition". But is this exclamation really appropriate?

First of all, from her family background, it is appropriate for her and even the people she represents to make such a sigh. Professor Liu Yu's family should be said to be a national elite. She is an associate professor in the country's highest university, and her lover is a philosophy professor. Then their daughter will receive the best education. In order to make her children become better while enjoying all kinds of high-quality resources, she has doubts about learning piano, and then wants her children to develop in the fields that her father is good at. This is what she calls ordinary. Just because you get an elite position in the piano industry, you can't continue to study in another industry. This is what she said, "My daughter is becoming an ordinary person". Such ordinary people are not ordinary people, and in the field of philosophy, it really costs money, which ordinary people can't afford.

Secondly, children, as ordinary people, are bound to go through a lot of tempering in the process of growing up in today's society. Generally speaking, the growth of children in ordinary families has always been backward, and even many things are not as good as elites. The reason why ordinary parents invest what they can in their children's growth is not that they want their children to become elites, but that they just want their children to keep up with the pace of society. After all, many parents are at the end of society, and many common sense things are not necessarily clear. The conditions are limited. You are growing, and others are learning to grow. When you are growing up, the elite has matured and started to enter the society. Therefore, no parents want their children to repeat their own path, let alone become elites, at least to keep up with the pace of the public.

Finally, the commonness of the elite and the commonness of the public are not the same thing, so don't confuse them. As the elite professor said, "My daughter is becoming an ordinary person". Perhaps her so-called ordinary is the end point that many public children can't reach all their lives. The starting point of others is your destination. Therefore, for the parents of the public, thanks to the uncertainty in education, it is this possible phenomenon that gives your children the opportunity to compete and also gives you the opportunity to invest in your children. Improve children's competitiveness. So, when you hear the exclamation of the elite, you can look up but don't take it seriously. Someone once said, "I'm not interested in money", but the rent of its electronic window has never been reduced.

Generally speaking, the gap between the general public and the elite is too big, and everyone's talent is actually limited. Only the uncertainty of education can give full play to this talent, and this is also a way for your child to become an elite, perhaps the only way.
