"My son said last month at the beginning of the new semester that he'd rather be a pig or a tree than a human being. I was shocked. He explained it was because schoolwork wears him down and he felt school life is not fun at all ... The current education system uses exams to value a student. As long as the system remains unchanged, the pressure on children will not be eased."
