What are the expenses for parents to sun their children's summer bills?

The summer vocation has come to a close. Two days ago, some parents calculated an account and found that their children's summer vacation expenses were like running water. Let's look at a bill first: travel 10000 yuan, swimming training 1000 yuan; Piano training is 3,500 yuan, math English training is 2,300 yuan, and winter vacation math English class training fee is 1.500 yuan, that is * * * 1.83 million yuan.

This is the expense of Xiaoci, a fourth-grade primary school student in Zheng Xue. During the summer vacation, my mother, Ms. Zhu, took Xiaoci to Dalian and Sanya and enrolled in swimming, piano, English and math classes. She unconsciously spent nearly 20,000 yuan.

Training and tourism are big heads.

Students' summer expenses are mainly various training courses and tours.

There are 40 students and 32 students in a class of Grade Four in Zheng Xue Primary School who travel in summer. Depending on the distance, route and travel time, the price ranges from several hundred yuan to ten thousand yuan.

Almost all the students signed up for training courses, some of them took supplementary cultural courses, some developed various interests and specialties, some learned sports skills, such as calligraphy, piano, Latin, swimming and badminton, and most of them signed up for more than two training courses.

One-to-one culture classes are generally 150 yuan, and the first calligraphy class is 750 yuan, 15. Piano lessons are held in 200 yuan every hour, usually once a week. Students who have passed the exam in summer vacation attend classes more frequently.

Such a summer vacation will naturally cost nearly 20 thousand yuan.

The reporter learned that Xuelin Street Primary School, Xiasha No.1 Primary School and Wenhai Education Group also arranged for students to participate in study tours during the summer vacation. According to the difference of study tour at home and abroad, the fees range from 4000-30000 yuan.

There are also students who participate in various summer camp activities. The first phase lasts about a week and costs about 3000 yuan. The destinations are mostly around Hangzhou.

It costs a lot, but it's worth it.

A summer vacation cost nearly 20 thousand yuan, and many parents were scared by this calculation. "How did you spend so much money? Comparable to my year-end award. " But many parents think the money is well spent.

Lu Tongxue's father said that he sent his daughter to study in England during the summer vacation, but he was worried about the independence of his children. Unexpectedly, after more than a week, the child took good care of himself, did not pack the dirty clothes home, and the luggage was neatly packed. When they went home, they didn't forget to bring presents to their families. Even 5000 yuan of pocket money is left over and handed in voluntarily. "So I don't think this money is wasted." Mr. Lu said.

Some parents think that money doesn't matter, but they think that their children are too hard. As Ms. Zhu, the mother of Xiaoci, said, I spent all my time on my daughter's various cram schools during the summer vacation, and the training cost exceeded my family's income for one month. Tutoring and training courses are all in downtown Hangzhou. I set out from Xiasha at 7: 00 in the morning and got home at about 9: 30 in the evening. It takes me nearly three hours to go back and forth every day, and I am very tired.

Consumption should be based on stimulating children's potential.

"Every summer, my parents say with a smile that this is the worst time to spend money. Children's educational consumption reflects parents' different attitudes towards their children's life planning. Some parents think that children should not be allowed to lose at the starting line, and holidays will force them to study hard. Some parents think that children should develop freely, but everyone is learning and has to follow suit. But no matter which way, the most important thing is to stimulate children's self-potential and build and enhance their self-confidence. "

Xu teacher, a primary school student, said that children have not yet formed independent values, outlook on life and ways of thinking in primary school. Tourism and study tour can increase your knowledge and broaden your horizons, but you should also properly account for the costs. "If economic conditions permit, it is ok to increase experience, but if economic conditions are average, there is no need to follow suit. Because the cultivation of independence can be placed in daily life. "

Facing various training courses, xu teacher suggested that the most important thing is to look at children's hobbies, and parents should not impose their hobbies and ideas on their children.

If children don't like it, it's no use spending more money. Money should be used in the right place.
