In response to Re Education in the UK (Former FT in the PRC)

Absolutely 100% correct!

It's precisely those wealthy backgrounds that give rise to the 'lazy attitude' that I am trying, (not so successfully), to point out.

I have 16 and 17 year old students who openly 'flash' their credit cards with a limit of RMB1million - which of course is daddy's money

Daddy wants to send them overseas to study, and foolishly believes they will succeed (in many cases)

The student cares not, simply because he (or she) knows he/she can return to China and work in the family company after a year or 2 of total failure.

I have one such student right now who will go to America this coming July, despite the fact that the ONLY English phrase/sentence she knows is 'I love you'

Jeez, I hope she can learn other 'skills' lol
