Not as rich as the male protagonist, nor as poor as the neighbors in the slums; he has not yet had children, let alone the issue of choosing a school for his children. This movie was originally meant to be fun to watch, but the reality conveyed in the movie is Thinking about it, the hostess who just moved to the wealthy area went to play with little PIA, but the children next to him didn't play with him. I think they were, with their own efforts, can do our best to climb to the class that is not his own. However, we forget that that class can choose not to accept us.
Elsewhere in the film there are hints of the reality that the principal had to help rich people with homework when he was young in order to be invited to a birthday party, and to go to a birthday party was still isolated. With the enrollment quota for poor students, they still need to pay expensive "extracurricular activity fees". We can imagine that paying once does not mean that we can pay every time; Participate in it, in the end, either these poor children are isolated, or they actively choose to close their hearts and not participate in it, so as not to be reminded again and again that they do not belong here.
I once heard a little thing about a private elementary school in Shanghai. Each student will be asked to take turns responsible for the landscaping of the class. It sounds okay, it gives children a sense of ownership and encourages children to use their imagination, creativity and execution. However, in the end, it became a competition for the financial and material resources of parents. In the beginning it was just the kids asking the parents for a little help, printing or designing something. Later, the children did not want to do worse than others, so they turned to their parents more and more for help, more than "creativity" and "effect". In the end, some parents even went directly to an advertising company to undertake this "project". It is said that the overall service cost is as high as more than 200,000...
Watchers here, do you have the 200,000? Are you willing to spend the 200,000?
In the end, the male protagonist chose to let the children go to public schools. Although it is an idealized treatment, in a sense, it is also a helpless choice that makes people feel cold behind their backs: class is originally composed of people, and there is no wishful thinking. You've spent a lot of time thinking about a class that doesn't belong to you, but in the end, where did you come from and go back there. The little boy in the slum is, and so is the little girl of the hero and heroine.

(The following is the negative energy of indiscriminate strike)
The question that I clicked into was called, which plot resonates with you the most. The problems I mentioned above, unfortunately, not only appear in education, but are entangled in all aspects of our lives. Whether it is the upstart of the middle class, or the brothers of migrant workers who work in other places to make money, when the environment around us changes, we have a high chance of facing such problems. And the solution to this problem, in a sense, can only be passive escape in various veils. Chinatown is a product of loneliness, and the Internet is a place of escape. We take pains to run the circles that we operate in various communities, instead of the hearts we should open up in real life.
It just doesn't make us feel at ease, and we deceive ourselves. Actually, it's a question of identity . When the environment around us changes, we want to blend in. If we can't integrate into it, then we will emphasize our original characteristics to deceive ourselves. It's not that it is "difficult" for me to integrate, but that I "don't want to" integrate into it .
Whether we are active or passive, the reality is that the enormous inertia that runs the world never allows us to challenge it on our own.
