Is it filial piety to take a picture of a basin of hot water in front of your parents? Is it a love of labor to wipe the table? Quality education in the "punch card" style is not allowed.
Recently, a short video released by a student's parents has triggered a hot discussion on the Internet. In the video footage, a girl holds a mobile phone in one hand to face her father's foot wash basin, and the other hand is placed in the foot wash basin, flicking on her father's foot a few times, quickly putting away the mobile phone after taking the action, turning around and closing the door.
The parent said that when he came back from work that night, his daughter called a basin of hot water and said that he washed his feet, which made him very moved, but before he could react, his daughter closed the door and left, feeling very surprised.
Later, when I asked, I learned that it was the gratitude class assignment assigned by the teacher.
The video caused the atmosphere of the whole people to eat melons, triggering a heated discussion among netizens about "gratitude education":
"Teaching by example is more thorough than teaching in a straight line"
"The whole society must reflect, and the school should reflect even more"
"This form of work is greater than the content"
"Now teachers assign so many tasks every day, some children can't complete it at all, only parents do it for them, it is done to complete the task."
"There are too many assignments like this in school. A lot of things are done by parents. A lot of people are coping with it."

Quality education has become a "punch card" task
In recent years, China attaches great importance to quality education, in addition to the subject courses of language and English, there are moral education, labor and other courses, teachers often assign homework, let students do housework after class or wash their parents' feet, etc., students take the corresponding photos or videos to complete the task. Originally, the starting point of these courses was also good, but gradually parents found that the children turned the homework assigned by the teacher into a "punch card" task.
As a result, there is an endless stream of operations like the little girl in the video. Previously, the Internet also broke out a more bizarre operation that made netizens feel more strange: a boy asked his father to help record homework for housework, and the father took the mobile phone to record videos for his son very seriously. The son is wearing a school uniform, holding a garbage can in one hand and a rag in the other hand to clean up the bones, fish bones and other garbage left over from dinner. The picture looks very beautiful, but when the father made an OK gesture to indicate that the video had been filmed, the son actually raised his hand and dumped the garbage that had just been collected back on the desktop, and then flew away, and the father on the side was directly confused.
In the past, although there were also labor classes and ideological and moral classes, teachers took the lead in organizing students to participate in specific activities, and students focused on participation and experience, and would not deliberately assign homework to let students go back to "punch in", but students would help to do some things within their capabilities after returning home.
In fact, gratitude, filial piety, love of labor these qualities can not be simply with one or two "punch card" tasks can be reflected, too much emphasis on doing homework will make students feel disgusted, have to cheat, quality education is also a formality.
In the episode "Washing Mother's Feet" in "Family with Children", Xia Xue's moral education teacher assigns a homework assignment to wash the feet of parents and then writes a 1,000-word "feeling after washing". In this regard, Xia Xue complained: "Wash your parents' feet once, you can learn to respect your parents and honor your parents?" Washing your parents' feet once can change the phenomenon of being solipsistic at home and being a little emperor and a little princess? Wash your parents' feet once, and you can become virtuous, mature and sensible? "What's not good about washing?" You have to wash your feet! Isn't washing your face okay? Can't I wash my hands? Can't I do laundry? ”
Filial piety and gratitude, which were supposed to be things, became a homework assignment, so that what children learn from school is not to be considerate of their parents and parents, but to be hypocritical and lie. Love and respect for parents, family, and others cannot be formulated to formulate unified standards and paradigms to apply and imitate, everyone has different ways of expression, in order to truly cultivate students' love, filial piety and gratitude, can not always take the "routine", but to teachers and parents to teach by example, moisturize people in the invisible.
