Safety Comes First
The mindset of sacrifice is seen as an important part of the Chinese nation’s traditional virtues. Chinese often regard those as heroes who volunteer to offer assistance in times of crisis. Even children and youngsters in primary and middle schools are taught to learn from this kind of heroes and do something alike when confronting a similar circumstance. However, I hold an opposite view on this issue.
Firstly, the new concepts of self-protection will not challenge or weaken the traditional Chinese virtue of justice and courage. On the contrary, it will be carried toward In a scientific and rational way. For instance, if primary students see a robbery on their way to school, they are advised to remember the traits of suspects and report the case to school and public security authorities. For high school students, they should report it first, and at the same time take some adequate actions to fight against criminals on the premise of fully guaranteeing their own safety. That is a positive and flexible measure to strengthen the self-protection awareness of students under the age of 18 for whom safety should be the first consideration. Given their physical strength and relevant training, it is not wise for them to stand up for justice at the risk of endangering their own lives.
Furthermore, full respect for one’s lives represents social progress. In the past, the government stressed that all efforts should be made to protect public interests regardless of the cost, but today priority is given to individual’s personal safety. And the new concepts actually require adults and teachers to enhance students’ awareness of safety and teach them the value of life. When they know they can not bring the suspect into control, they are advised to seek help instead of acting boldly and bluntly. Certainly we do not want our youngsters to become cowards, but we do want them to be wise.
An old saying goes that a wise man cuts the coat according to the cloth he has. We should emphasize that acts are to be taken in conformity with one’s specific circumstance. And youngsters are not advised to take the challenge and risk beyond their limitation, for they represent the future of our nation.
