67、ade known to their children. Different students have different opinions.Most of the students insist on knowing their parents income. Knowing how hard their parents arc working, they will study harder, learning to save every cent to lighten their parents burdens. But the rest dont think so. In their
68、opinion, if they know their parents have a good income, they may give up studying hard since theyll have no worries for the future and easily form wasteful habits. If they know their parents income is low, the children may look down upon themselves and their studies will be affected in some way.I share the same idea with the latter. To make sure that we concentrate on our studies, we shouldnt get involved in our parents money matters.
