His frustration also stems from the inconsistent test results of his son. The child’s scores ranged from 40-50 points to 80-90 points in previous exams, according to his mother. The video went viral on Weibo, with many Internet users sympathizing with the father’s parental struggles. However, others argued that the child’s score reflected the father’s inability to teach mathematics. Some viewers also suggested that the father’s late-night tutoring may have affected his son’s ability to watch school. “Teaching the child in the middle of the night every day, but the child needs a lot of rest to be in a good mental state and to perform well,” said one commentator. “The more anxious my daughter was when she was a child, the more incapable her brain was of thinking, so it would be nice to let her play.” More from NextShark: Elementary school students shower art teacher with farewell hugs, drawings on his last day on viral TikTok Selected image via Weibo More from NextShark: Former head of state-run Chinese newspaper claims there is ‘high chance’ of war with US Do you like this content?
