On campus, this group of boys and girls aged thirteen or fourteen are naughty and bold. I like their bright smiles on their pretty little faces, their vivid and beautiful sensitive clothes in class, and their whimsy when they talk about everything. In them, we have all the glory of youth. So I always want to laugh when I look at them. As a teacher, I often like to tell them that I love them very much. In response, most of them trusted me. However, even the best real life is not a fairy tale. There is never a shortage of students in the class who give teachers a headache. In the worst case, like Qian Zhongshu's besieged city, people who live in the city always want to leave the city, and my children are also attracted to the world outside school.
In their eyes, sitting in the classroom, facing the same teacher, the same class schedule and the boring classroom every day, they are so bored. Outside, the territory outside is so big, waiting for them to discover, explore and create; The scenery outside is so beautiful, the shops are row upon row, and the lights are brilliant; Life outside is so free that even people look particularly cool and arrogant.
The first time a student dropped out of school was in the first grade. She is a little girl. She doesn't like studying, and her grades are not ideal. She usually likes to chat and hang out with people who don't study. She often makes big mistakes, not small ones. But I always felt that she was not the most difficult person in the class. I didn't expect that she would be the first person to stop reading, because this is the first time I have encountered such a thing. Like a headless fly, I was confused and asked a large number of old people. Later, her parents told me that the child really can't read and doesn't want to study. In the future, I will consider sending her to study computer. I know this is prevarication. Her parents have three or four children and have no energy to take care of her. Later, the second day of junior high school will have an exam. I contacted her and asked if she would come back for the exam. She didn't say anything, and her parents replied on her behalf: Forget it, I forgot all the knowledge. I know, she works in my uncle's shop now, and the salary is not high, but it is definitely enough for her. Now she's avoiding me and doesn't want to contact me. I really don't know if she will regret today's choice in ten years.
The second time I dropped out of school, I was still a little girl in the second grade. She was very beautiful. The little girl's family is very poor and she is a typical migrant worker. In order to save money, the family huddled in a small bungalow. Her father is disabled and violent, and her mother is weak and bullied as a cleaner. She has a poor learning foundation, and her parents never helped her when she was a child. She had bad habits in primary school and even stole from her teachers. Many people in our class refused to be with her because of criticism. I talked to her many times and finally walked into her world. Because of her poor foundation and poor study, I told her that doing more work is also a contribution to the class, and everyone will see your change. Junior high school is really a new beginning. She made new friends and her first year went unexpectedly well. Later, someone lost a hundred dollars. She was the first person to be suspected because of her criminal record. I still remember her grievance.
That year, my little daughter once told me that I was the first teacher who treated her so well, but in the end, I still couldn't keep her. She ran away from home before I could go to her house. Only then did I know that her family was poor and her mother didn't stop her father from violence against her. In the hot summer, she wore a winter school uniform and had long hair to cover up the scars on her face. I called her, her parents and Duan. We talked all afternoon that day and finally got a promise from her father that we would never hit her again. I breathed a sigh of relief, but just over a month after I thought I was finally okay, she left home again.
It turned out that the first time she ran away from home, she met a boy at a friend's house. This loveless and simple little girl soon degenerated. He bought her a mobile phone and gave her money to make her happy. Later, her parents found out, sentenced her to break up, locked her up and she ran away. This time she lives in a boy's house.
Later, she couldn't stay at school. She learned to make up and spend money on pleasure. Although the boy outside is only a wage earner of seventeen or eighteen, he has no education and looks, that's all. Most of my classmates and I think it is difficult for her to see the future with him, but that different life is so attractive to her that all the people who stop her from running outside are wrong. ...
With the first and second, there are the third and fourth who don't want to learn. I asked them why, what I heard most was that reading was useless, so it was better to go out to work.
I asked him, what can you do? Many people are speechless. They actually have no plans and directions for their lives. Maybe they can have a good life after leaving school. They can go to shops, work as waiters or go to construction sites. People who are willing to make money and really want to work can always find jobs. It seems that they still have many choices.
But you know, son, your current salary is two or three thousand, which you think is considerable, but have you thought about input and output accordingly? This kind of work has little room for personal growth, the salary is basically fixed, and the monthly working hours are long, but the rest time is only two or three days. Even if you change your job one day, you can choose and still get similar treatment. Are you willing to live like this all your life?
Yes, I believe in opportunities and success, but for us ordinary people, it is really too little and too difficult. One day, when you really grow up, will you regret it? Do you think you can take care of a family after you have a home?
Son, the outside world looks big, beautiful, rich and wonderful, but it's out of your control now. Be kind to yourself in the future. Please do not leave school easily. We always say that knowledge changes fate. That makes sense. Studying now can't bring you money and status, but it will affect where you go and who you dance square dance with in the future.
On campus, we are not only acquiring knowledge, but also honing and cultivating ourselves.
My dear children, please insist that the present study is boring, but you will always gain something in the process. When you look back on today, you will find that you didn't leave easily, and the outside world is not as beautiful as it seems.
