Lin En-hsiang, a high school student, points out that today families have few children, and parents today carry over the habit--started by the elite families of old--of spoiling their offspring. Under conditions in which children get whatever they want, and never develop the habit of sharing, naturally they are more selfish.
就讀建國中學的林恩群認為，現代社會孩子生得少，但中國父母溺愛順從孩子的習慣卻沒有變，在孩子要什麼給什麼，卻缺乏手足分享的習慣下，的確比較現實自私。
