Escape from pressure of study and examinations.

Recently, the parents of seven families in Wuhan gave up the chance for urban education and started to teach their children on their own in the schoolhouse of an abandoned primary school.

The parents said that their children do not need to take exams here, but have other tasks to do such as paint the walls, arrange the furniture in the classroom, landfill the wastes, plant and water the vegetables, and in addiction, for the relatively elder children, to wash some of their own clothes.
