What is the role of parents? Why did it gradually evolve into a group of sunbathers and comparisons?

"Others travel everywhere in the summer vacation, but I am busy working overtime as a dog. I am also a parent. How can this difference be so big! " On a beautiful weekend, I'm going to take a nap with my son. Suddenly, the phone kept ringing, and WeChat suddenly jumped out of 20 messages, all of which were photos. It turned out to be a parent group built by my son's school. A parent sent a photo of taking his child out for a trip in the group. Alas, Marjorie could only look at the empty wallet while brushing photos and sigh, "It's a good thing my son didn't see it, otherwise I would be clamoring to go there like my classmates."

Speaking of "parents", I believe many people have a deep understanding. Now there are children at home, and every class has parents. Members of the family Committee will also be pulled over by the teacher alone. In some classes, teachers in all subjects will build a group, even if they have to pull a group in the last cram school, take Marjorie for example. Counting the QQ WeChat in the mobile phone, there are actually seven parents.

These groups are simply small rivers and lakes, although there are only a few dozen people. The swords and shadows inside are vivid! Euphemistically, it is convenient to learn and communicate with children. In fact, the news is 99+ every day, and it is nonsense to open it. It is not the focus of the teacher, but the parents are brushing the screen.

Summer vacation is the most active period for parents. No, one of the parents in Marjorie's mobile phone just took a photo of the Great Wall in Beijing, and the other immediately took a photo of Hong Kong Disneyland. One shot is dozens of pictures, and a lot of them are all high-definition pictures. Sometimes it is accompanied by a few hundred words of "Travel Experience with Baby", all of which are local specialties. How much did the hotel cost? In short, this is a wave of wealth.

Diving among parents all the year round, this kind of Marjorie is really more, not only sending photos of travel, but some parents even send photos to their children in the last interest class. Those who learn musical instruments, dance and painting really have everything, and they can all piece together a play. There is more exaggeration. Just a few days ago, a parent bought a piano for her daughter and invited a private piano tutor. Every afternoon, he teaches his daughter to play the piano. For several days in a row, he either sent photos of his daughter practicing piano in the group, or sent photos of private piano tutoring, and he always took a small video and shot 360 degrees without a dead angle. It is a naked show-off, which invisibly leads to the comparison between parents.

This behavior makes many parents very uncomfortable. Therefore, in another parent's own WeChat group (this parent did not join), many parents are voicing the show-off behavior of this parent, and some parents even made it clear that they will not let their children get too close to her children because they don't like it.

Although Marjorie disapproves of such behavior, innocent interaction between children should not be mixed with emotions between adults, but these behaviors of showing off wealth among parents do bring some bad effects. Originally established to facilitate communication between teachers and parents, the parent group has gradually evolved into a place of right and wrong for sunbathing and showing off wealth.

In these WeChat groups, Marjorie generally doesn't talk about diving, and sometimes he thinks about deleting and quitting these parents directly. But having said that, how many parents dare to really do this? What if I miss the teacher's important information? What if a child is isolated by other children at school in the future? Joe's mother admitted that she was timid in this matter.
