幼儿园还要再给他像你说的这样办一遍的,和家长弄是不矛盾的,美好记忆完全可以更多一点,没有必要限制,只要精力和财力允许,完全可以办生日会,生日会怎么算也算不着不好的风气

我认为大型生日会是不良风气,因为一部分有精力财力的家庭给没有精力财力的家庭造成了压力,父母因为担心孩子因此受到压力,而不得不举办同样形式的生日会。而这种形式并没有赋予生日会特别的意义。比如乐乐你设定的20元礼物符合标准,一个月9个生日,180元礼品预算,承受不起的家庭,是不是就没有能力让自己孩子参加朋友的生日会这样的社交活动?' C0 e+ S" F, }# a6 x
- E0 o" N S8 a8 r2 E我家的财力精力大概不能和乐乐家比,但是我觉得给小孩子的生日大肆刷卡不是一件值得提倡的事情,有悖我的教育观念。6 s. h+ W {$ g$ p& _( H/ R

Some parents say they are happy with birthday parties that drive other parents up the wall. But we have talked to many parents who report these consequences.
3 s2 h- {) N& Q6 i _They feel pressured to “make” their child “happy” by meeting escalating community standards for parties. ; W8 N: E3 i( r' ^/ B/ J2 T) V- `
