Letter from father to daughter entering first grade makes readers laugh

This funny dad sent his daughter who is about to enter first grade a humorous yet profound letter.

"Preparing for first grade, I just..."study less, play more"!

A humorous letter that a father sent to his little daughter who is about to enter first grade made netizens laugh out loud.

Many people agreed with the father's progressive ideas, and many parents even thought it was "very reasonable" and would follow suit to give their children a childhood that was not overloaded with studying.

"So, this year my daughter is in first grade. Even though the school year hasn't officially started yet, she has already gone to school a few days early. Seeing her and her classmates makes me happy.

You are not too small, not too fat, not too thin, not too tall and not too short. And that is also the goal that I aim for you when you start your school years: not too good and not too bad.

In life, too much of anything is bad, even Yang… Too much is not good.

For Dad, in first grade and throughout elementary school, you only studied a little, but played the most. You didn't have to hunch over books, didn't have to set goals for beautiful handwriting, didn't have to add, subtract, multiply, and divide quickly, didn't have to speak English faster than Vietnamese.

Writers, poets and journalists like me, who had beautiful handwriting when they were young, mostly grew up poor. My doctor friends, whose handwriting was as bad as a chicken scratch, were still very rich, my son.

Dad finds it funny when other parents register their children for first grade, but secretly give the school tens of millions of dong so that their children can be placed in the gifted class.

Then their parents would sneak it to the homeroom teacher so that their children would get more attention. And so on, their whole lives would be spent sneaking it around their children. I won't do that. I swear.

Look, honey, when I was little, my grandparents didn't send me to preschool. When I entered first grade, I started from scratch.

Speaking like a Hue person, not knowing a single word of "blind". Yet, my father was a student majoring in Literature at Quoc Hoc Hue High School.

In grade 9, my father was one of 10 students in the provincial national literature competition team.

Don't be sad, my son. I'm on every team, but I just didn't win any prizes. I compete when I want to, whether I win or not is a matter of luck.

My dad's childhood was spent with his head in the sky (not even a sun hat), his feet on the ground, but he still got his diplomas on time, from elementary school, middle school, high school to university.

Look at you, you are much older than your father. At 3 years old, you went to Thien Duong Tre Tho kindergarten. You studied so well that at 4 years old you were expelled to Sao Viet kindergarten. You studied so well that at 5 years old you were expelled to Ban Mai kindergarten. You studied so many kindergartens but you still study poorly in first grade. It is your mother's fault, not your father's. They say like mother, like daughter.

In short, my child, when you are about to enter first grade, you should just "study less, play more". As a girl, you are different in… your husband. The ones who study a lot and have high degrees are mostly ugly. I swear."
