"Ah, I still find it hard to part, just sending my child off to Russia like this? Away from home tens of thousands of miles in the snap of a finger, unable to return even once in a year, how should we cope with that?"
Lao Liu's mother spoke with lingering reluctance.
Although they had brought with them three hundred thousand cash today, they hesitated when it came down to it.
"What is there to fear for a boy! He should venture out and see the world while he's young. Staying holed up at home all the time will lead to no achievements." His father was more easygoing about it.
However, there were quite a few parents who shared Lao Liu's mother's sentiments.
Although they wanted their children to study abroad, to broaden their horizons and gain some prestige, they also worried about their children not being able to adjust to the new environment, or facing health issues and other problems. It would be a troublesome ordeal for the family to visit them overseas.
