Answer 1

We know sometimes difficult conditions can really make a man, so parents should let their children eat bitter foods, do hard work and experience a hard life.
I grew up in an ordinary family, which is not so well off. I could understand the hardships my parents were bearing at that time. Therefore, I work very hard now in the hope of entering the university and change the situation of my family and me.
I think that in a certain sense, difficult situations can stimulate a person's potential and pave the way for him to success.
To make the child grow strong, parents should make him eat poor food, do hard work, and experience life in bad conditions, with which a child will value the labour and be capable of facing hardship. As the saying goes, " No pains, no gains." It is obvious that the way one lives his childhood plays an important part in his development. If one is brought up in a family that is wasteful, he is likely to be lazy when he grows up. On the other hand, a child who lives a hard life in his childhood, learning that one must be independent and frugal to face challenge, is bound to be strong.
All in all, no cross, no crown. Let’s face up to our responsibilities and spare no effort to fulfill our ambitions.
