For many students, when they see other students wearing famous brands on campus, they will inevitably have a comparison mentality, and they will ask their parents to buy similar goods for themselves.
Recently, some netizens broke the news that Cheng Gang, a first-grade teacher at Bandung Experimental Middle School in Xiajin County, Dezhou, Shandong Province, advocated that the students in the class wear cloth shoes to class after learning that the students in the class had conflicts with their parents because of buying expensive sneakers!
Some netizens believe that the teacher's approach is understandable, to educate them from an early age that they can't have a comparison mentality, the comparison psychology will only make their families have more experience burdens, and it is also not conducive to the healthy growth of children's physical and mental health, and the teacher's approach by letting the whole class wear cheap cloth shoes, it will also allow the student to eliminate the comparison psychology to a certain extent, and see that the classmates around him are wearing the same as themselves, and there is no such strong contrast! At the same time, this behavior can also prevent the same classmate from having the same comparison psychology as this classmate!
Some netizens believe that the teacher's approach is inappropriate, because a student has a comparison mentality, and force other students to buy cloth shoes, although the teacher's starting point is good, but this practice will also add additional burden to other children and families!
In response, the school's staff said that Ms. Cheng's suggestion was supported by the students' parents, and two classes have responded to this suggestion. At the same time, he also said that school is a place to read and learn, and he does not want children to focus on comparing themselves with each other. The school will not enforce this matter. In addition, during physical education classes or when students need to exercise, children will also be asked to change into sports shoes to protect their safety.
As a teacher in the school, it is understandable to educate students not to have a comparison mentality so that students can focus on learning, but it should still be carried out in an appropriate way and method, although it can indeed play a certain role in making the whole class dress uniformly, but for other parents and students, it is inevitable that there will be a mandatory meaning, which will make them have different opinions, thinking that the school is charging in disguise! Therefore, instead of adopting this simple and crude education method, it is better to start from the ideological point of view, so that they realize the harm of comparison psychology, which will not only affect their own learning, but also bring a burden to the family, and in serious cases, it will lead to some out-of-the-ordinary things!
