Buxiban teacher Michael Kao believes that nowadays, as both mother and father are busy, a buxiban is unquestionably a place for kids to go outside the home which parents can trust. Kao jokingly remarks, "At least they won't be watching TV, playing video games and opening the fridge like they would at home. Then they would have fights with their parents, and it would be bad for family relations."
補習班名師高國華認為，現在父母都忙，補習班的確是家庭之外，一個可以教人比較放心，讓孩子可以待的地方，「至少不會像在家裡，要嘛看電視、打電動玩具或開冰箱，不然就跟父母親吵架，影響親子關係」，高國華開玩笑地說。
