China's youngest PhD student stirs parenting debate

kiddo:
that is why PhD = Permanent head Damaged
well said and funny too :rotflmao: :rotflmao:Mawar:
Spoken like an immature child.
This boy spent his entire childhood pursuing academic excellence, and likely away from his parents. He only uses some parts of his brain in the paper chase, the other parts of him have been neglected. Still lots of growing up to do. Please excuse his childish remark.
Maybe the parents used the carrot and stick approach. Ah Boy ah, you pass this exam, we get you candy. You pass the other exam, we get you nice shoes. Finally Ah Boy decided that he wanted his own castle. What's wrong with that? Conditioned since birth.
what good is a PHD then if we only breed this kind of children.....

where is Fudan and Jiaotong....[/quote]Beijing is not good unless it is Beida -- but then it is only for humanities
Tsinghua is best (most famous) for math / science / engrg
Fudan & Jiaotong are in Shanghai. Fudan well known for medicine and Jiaotong well known for engrg
Beida / Tsinghua / Fudan / Jiaotong are sometime known as the Big 4 in China but there are others quite good too -
