The Problem of Left-behind Children

During the past 30 years, with the economic development of China, more and more young people who once lived in the countryside crowd into cities with the purpose of earning enough money to support their families. Consequently, the problem of left-behind children arises.

The problem actually reflects the fact that there are millions of left-behind children facing not only living problems but also psychological problems and the latter ones count. Most left-behind children live with their grandparents. Lacking in the knowledge of how to educate children, some of their grandparents tend to spoil them while some may pay little attention to them.Feeling lonely, left-behind children are more likely to form the habit of keeping silent or staying aloneand as a result, most of them don’t do well in their study, which makes them feel inferior.Though I can’t list out every aspect of this problem, I am sure it is rather serious.

In my opinion, the key to solving the problem of left-behind children lies in the combined effort. Not only children’s parents but also our society and our government should take efficient measures to deal with it. Let’s wait and see!
