Confused parents can only take things one step at a time, as they try to respond to the conflicting demands of an environment that expects them to make their children happy, but also able to compete. But if we take a look at the real "sufferers" -children themselves-it seems that the slogans about happy learning that have been bandied around in the education debate for the last few years have not had much effect.
疑惑的家長，只能走一步算一步，努力調適與對應「又要快樂，又要有競爭力」的氛圍，但若從真正的「苦主」──孩子身上觀察，這幾年教育上的快樂學習口號，顯然並未在他們身上產生太多效果。
