In recent years, international schools have sprouted all over Shanghai. Well-to-do Taiwanese parents concerned about their children's education have been paying registration fees and visiting multiple schools in an effort to ensure that their children have the broadest possible educational opportunities. But the superabundance of options on offer has itself become a headache, and Taiwanese parents are now struggling with numerous knotty issues.
