大华府地区是全美数一，数二的学习及课外活动压力大的地区。有多种原因造成的。一，经济好，课外活动要以经济为基础。二，学生普遍素质高，不管智商和各方面才能，综合高于其它各州。三，各种资源丰富等等。当然我们华人圈比起其他民族，会有过之而无不及。首先，好亊，我们的后代幸福和幸运了！但有些概念要多找机会提给小孩听。Everybody is different, nobody is perfect, be good at yourself, somebody is good with something but not everything, you don't need to be like somebody, admiring somebody been good but not envy. Do your best what ever you are doing. Stop to be a quitter. .......有了这些positive 的概念和想法，恐怕家长和小孩压力都不会太大。
