The complaint and venting type, such as "The person with the heaviest schoolbag is me, the person with the most homework is me, the person who gets up earliest is me, the person who sleeps latest is me, the hardest working person is me, it's me, me, still me..."; "Scores, scores, the lifeblood of students; exams, exams, the darling of teachers; copying, copying, the ultimate strategy for tests." However, parents are very "allergic" to this, and do not approve of their children's "sense of identity." "I repeatedly teach my son about the harm of these nursery rhymes, and have even punished him by making him stand in the corner, but when he meets with other classmates every day, he still recites these rhymes," "The current catchy phrases sound more and more off, they don't match their age group at all," "I really don't understand why today's children like these nursery rhymes" —— many parents expressed their concern and confusion in interviews. March 21st is "World Nursery Rhyme Day," and the reporter went to the children, originally thinking that I could hear cheerful and pleasant children's songs, but instead found that what is popular among students are not happy children's songs, but rather "gray nursery rhymes" self-composed and sung by the children. These varied "gray nursery rhymes" can basically be summarized into three categories: complaint and venting type, humorous teasing type, and melancholy rebellious type. There are also some rebellious "nursery rhymes" filled with defiance: "First grade thieves, second grade robbers, third grade handsome men with no one to accompany, fourth grade beauties with no one to chase, fifth grade gangs everywhere, sixth grade love letters flying everywhere"... The reporter interviewed psychological expert Chen Mo from the Psychological Counseling Studio of East China Normal University. She joked, "This phenomenon exists in every era, there's no need to make a fuss." She explained, "From a psychological perspective, when children are between 10 to 13 years old, they will be very enthusiastic about what we consider 'disgusting' words and sentences. This doesn't mean they've gone bad, it's just their condition during the latent period before adolescence. At this time, they express their emotions through some negative or even vulgar sentences." As for how parents and teachers should respond? Chen Mo said, "There's no need to make a fuss, just let it be." "This phenomenon usually disappears when children reach the second or third year of junior high school. They themselves will realize their immaturity and adopt appropriate ways to vent their emotions." She suggested that parents shouldn't scold them outright, "If you really feel this is very inappropriate and cannot tolerate it, you can adopt a 'diversion' method and shift the child's attention to some interesting things." The content of the "gray nursery rhymes" is negative. Then why are there so many complaints about academic pressure in these nursery rhymes? Chen Mo answered, "The current educational pressure is indeed quite large. Nursery rhymes reflect children's unconscious contradictory psychology towards academic pressure, and they helplessly vent their pressure through sarcasm." Students: Our lives are exactly like this. □ Morning Post reporter Zhu Xiaofang intern Yu Lingyan Expert: A normal phenomenon before adolescence. Since some nursery rhymes are not healthy, it has caused great confusion among parents, but the students are "having fun in it." The reporter asked for the opinions of several students: "Very funny, our lives are exactly like this," "If you don't know these, you'll be looked down upon by classmates, appearing very outdated, and won't be able to fit in!" In the eyes of students, knowing the latest nursery rhymes means they aren't falling behind and are fashionable, which is one of the ways they identify with each other. Some children parody "True Heart Hero" with a humorous tone, reflecting their helpless school life: "In my heart, the teacher is the fiercest, tutoring classes go on until nine or ten o'clock at night; back home, mom is the fiercest, always watching over homework without relaxing; when mom leaves, dad is the fiercest, scolding me every day until I feel worthless; when parents aren't around, I am the fiercest, punching and kicking, venting everything! That's what a true heart hero is." In addition, some children adapt ancient poems: "Li Bai was about to set sail on his boat, suddenly hearing a splash as someone jumped into the water, diving down quickly, only to find Wang Lun when he surfaced." "The person with the heaviest schoolbag is me, the person with the most homework is me, the person who gets up earliest is me, the person who sleeps latest is me, the hardest working person is me, it's me, me, still me..." In the past "World Nursery Rhyme Day," children did not sing happy nursery rhymes, but instead composed and sang "gray nursery rhymes" with negative content.
