Talk:Hongkong kids

Reenggp1 (talk)"HongKong kids'' is a certain phrase describing a certain negative social phenomenon.


 * All I can say is, so what? I cannot see thery there is anything special about 'brats' (Spoiled child) or selfish children. They exist everywhere. What sets brats in Hong Kong apart from brats elsewhere? 220  of  Borg 14:53, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your question and concern. I am a newcomer to Wikipedia and I do not know many guidelines yet, so please do not mind I reply a bit late. Actually, "Hongkong Kids" are not the exactly the same as brats, they are asked to do well in their academic study or some specific aspects, like music, sports, art... Their parents spoil them in some ways that do not require them to do housework or simply take care of themselves. One of the causes of the phenomenon is that the education system in Hong Kong is examination oriented, so parents just want their kids to focus on their study while neglect their real personal growth. As a result, some of the university students even cannot make their own decision and always rely on their parents to help arrange their schedule. Thus, "Hongkong Kids" here as a proper noun in Hong Kong, is quite different from brats. Reenggp1 (talk) 01:44, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
