There is a serious problem with such an "advice" Firstly, many people who dun study hard become mega millionaires and those who study hard become sinkies.
too bad , its still happening in singapore ..trust me . thats why singapore is a rat race country . yes , i just got a dipolma in interior design , but im doing well in tokyo now ..so i agreed with you on that .
And the 2nd thing is, it causes the young to look down on road sweeper. What sort of education is that?
i guess those parent want to scare their kids to study hard , i know its wrong but alot of parents still tell their kids that ...
The better way to educate is to tap on the child's interest and let the child try out different things to let him know what interest him.
yes..totally agreed . thats why japan is such a great country to bring up your kids ..we dont look down on anybody . we only look down on lazy ppl .
Anyway, these sort of thing only happen in a REAL first world country with REAL first world quality people.
