Chinanews, Tianjin, October 17 – Tianjin Municipal Academy of Social Sciences has done a research to find the adults view on kids, finding that 76.4% of the respondents complain about today’s kids being too “mature.” 15.3% of the respondents are even shocked by kids when they talk and act like adults.

 

Most of the respondents are parents in their 30s or 40s. 26.3% of them believe kids today are more mature than the kids of 10 years ago, when the word “mature” absolutely had a derogatory meaning if used to say of a child. Today, most kids will take this word as a praise, for it means that they are more sleek1 and usually have a higher prestige among their friends.

 

By the way, most teachers in elementary schools and junior highs appreciate “mature” students, for they make their teaching jobs easier.

 

Today many kids have already learned the importance of good personal relations, especially with authorities.

 

Is it really good for kids to lose their innocence2 so early? This is the question.
