答案 Are parents the test teachers?
    Obviously, in most cases the earliest teachers people have are their parents, and parents are generally most concerned about the development of their children. However, it is not completely true to say that parents are the best teachers.
    First of all, not all parents are good teachers. As normal individuals, some parents more or less have some bad habits. Even though parents almost instinctively devote themselves to cultivating their offspring, the outcome might turn out to be a disappointment, for all children tend to unconsciously or subconsciously copy everything including bad ones from their parents. Another deficiency of parents as teachers is the fact that most parents lack common sense of education. All too often we observe some parents who tend to pursue their cherished but failed dreams by forcing their children to develop in a prearranged direction. Ironically, when their children do not follow the instructions, the children will be regarded as disobedient or allegedly rebellious. In fact, it is parents rather than their children that virtually disobey common sense.
    Moreover, some parents are qualified as good teachers, but not all of them are the best ones. When children are in the preliminary school, it is not surprising that parents are perhaps capable of teaching their children almost every subject even better than professional teachers in the school. But the situation will not last long. We live in a world where knowledge is accumulated exponentially and at the same time becomes more and more specialized. Therefore, to be a professional in a certain field today takes much longer time than has ever been before. No parents are able to be professional in all fields, though they might be experts in one or more fields. Wise parents often release rather than charge their children as early as possible. They are aware of the possibility outside the family.
    Parents may, nevertheless, help their children much more than do good teachers. Most parts of children’s education are virtually beyond teachers’ reach. It is parents that supplement. Psychological studies have shown us that parents’ love sometimes has astonishingly magic power over their children. Albert Einstein’ s mother and that of Forest Gump are both good examples. On the other hand, parents might do their children harm more than do bad teachers as well. The nature of those children whose parents have divorced is often severely distorted. In a word, it is rather superficial to simply say that parents are the best teachers.
