Features: To enable their own children to grow better and live a happier life. Some families with lower incomes, parents often practice frugality, always prioritizing their children's needs, with more than half of their daily expenses going towards their children. In some impoverished regions, parents would rather sell their blood than see their children suffer. This book starts with small incidents from daily life, telling parents how to educate their children, understanding what they should dedicate to their children, so that children can grow up in a suitable environment and become individuals their parents can be proud of, and useful to the nation. This is the common aspiration of every parent.
Many children demand that their parents understand them, do not restrict their freedom, and give them more personal space. Yet, they rarely reflect on whether they can understand the genuine love of their parents. In their parents' hearts, they will always be children! When parents pour all their unfulfilled dreams and everything they have into their children, dedicating everything to them, can they then truly understand them? Alas, the hearts of all parents are pitiful! Many parents face the current phenomena with confusion, unable to understand or accept them. In their bewilderment, frustration, and pain, they utter the silent lament of contemporary parents: "What can I offer to you—my child!"
