My son always helps his classmates buy things and receives tips. Should I praise or criticize?

This question is really tangled. I remember it was in Mr. Yao Kewei's article. Look: Should I tip my classmates? Hungry after school, I went to the store to help buy snacks on my way home. I got home 20 minutes later than usual, and paid the corresponding labor and time. His behavior is essentially "purchasing", and it is reasonable and legal to charge a certain amount of labor remuneration according to the facts. There are many such businesses on the Internet now. However, in our conventional understanding of China society, talking about money hurts feelings, and tipping between people we know is not in line with social rules. In the face of such behavior, most people can't agree with it. How to explain to children how to earn pocket money in books when Mao Dun happened in reality? Different national conditions and social concepts cause people's ideological differences. The same thing happened in a foreign country, which is a very legitimate and reasonable thing, but in the society we live in, most people can't accept it.

Reminds me of a friend's daughter who made an advertisement in the summer vacation. The content is that she hopes to work part-time in the summer vacation and earn some pocket money for herself. I remember that her advertisement made many friends laugh at that time. Only I told her seriously that I would like to hire her as a part-time job in my family. At that time, her happy smile was deeply imprinted in my mind. Later, due to the obstruction of friends and couples, the child's self-reliance action, which is extremely worthy of appreciation, was stifled in the bud because of his parents' face and secular views.

When we complain that today's children don't know how to cherish their parents' hard work, spend money without a plan, spend lavishly, love to compare with others for vanity, and when children earn pocket money through proper channels, their good motives are killed prematurely because of some secular views, should we reflect on our own practices instead of blindly complaining about our ignorance?

In the investigation of parents' actions to prevent their son from collecting tips from classmates, deep-seated parents are also worried that others will think that their son is a person who got into the eyes of money at a young age. If you support your son's approach, you will be misunderstood by others. If you don't support it, your son will be at a loss in thought. Why don't the methods taught in books work in real life? Parents are worried that this incident will lead him to think that what is said in the book is different from reality in the future, and he will be resistant to book knowledge and truth from now on? This is a very tangled problem.

Hope useful to you
