HONG KONG: A Chinese woman who missed out on an education as a child decided to rectify that by enrolling at kindergarten with her 5-year-old daughter, according to a local media report.
Shi Xiaoqin, a 31-year-old mother of two from Guizhou province in southern China, took her place in a classroom full of new pupils last month, news portal Ynet.com reported on Thursday.
She said she was unconcerned about what others might think of a grown woman going to school.
“I don’t care what others think of me. Accompanying my daughter in class not only helps me to pick up new knowledge, but also allows me to better teach my daughter,” she said.
“Once I know how to read and write, I can help my daughter learn at home, and when she grows up, she will have the chance to get a good job.” – SCMP
