Do you feel that some parents' [] educational ideas are religious and divorced from the essence of education?

Yes, some parents' educational ideas may be biased towards religion and go beyond the essence of education. This may happen in families with religious belief as the main guiding principle of education. Such parents may place too much emphasis on religious teachings, rules and values, regard religious belief as the core of their children's education, and neglect other important educational aspects, such as the cultivation of academic, social and practical skills.

When parents regard religious belief as the core of education, some problems may arise. For example, they may ignore children's personal interests, talents and independent thinking ability and pay too much attention to traditional values and norms. This may limit children's development and ability to think freely.

In addition, the over-religious educational concept may also lead to children's lack of openness and inclusiveness when they are exposed to other cultures, religions and belief systems. This may limit the development of their world outlook and interpersonal skills.

However, it should be pointed out that religion has an important influence on education. For some families, religious belief may be part of their core values and lifestyle. The key lies in how to balance religious belief with other aspects of comprehensive education to ensure that children get all-round development and comprehensive educational experience.

The best education method is to establish an environment of open dialogue and respect for different views, provide children with diverse learning opportunities and encourage them to think and explore different values and belief systems. This can help them cultivate independent thinking ability and global awareness to adapt to a diversified society.
