People’s growth mainly depends on themselves. What do parents “carry” you with—really, they can’t raise much talent; they might instead end up lifting out idiots.


Wang Sicong has been carried enough, hasn’t he? He even got 500 million to “practice,” and the result was that he managed to cause a hole worth dozens of billions, and his dad and mom still had to clean up the mess.
Did he get carried too little? His dad just gave him some tuition, and as a result he turned to speculation and scheming on his own—now he has become a tycoon of a generation.
When I was young, the son of my class teacher was also in our class. In that fifth-grade final exam, his mom insisted on adding points everywhere, until he tied with me for first place.
That was the best kind of “carrying” his mom could give him, but it was actually of little use. He may even develop a psychological dependency: if he doesn’t do well, his mom will come to the rescue.
When it came time to get into high school, his dad spent several ten thousand yuan again to send him into the same high school as mine.
In the end, it seemed he didn’t get into college. Of course, that’s actually not a big problem—if his mayor father hadn’t died young, he still would have had the ability to arrange him an official posting. But that’s all.
Being protected too well is sometimes not a good thing.
