拿走孩子的压岁钱恰当么？Is it Appropriate to Take Away kid’s New Year Money
最近，一个大学女孩提出的一个问题成为了讨论的热点。“我爸妈拿走我的压岁钱合法么”？众所周知，在中国的传统里，孩子在春节期间能从父母，亲戚和父母的朋友那里得到压岁钱。然后父母在孩子拿到红包之后拿走全部或者大部分的压岁钱也是很正常的事情。有些人认为这样不恰当，有些人持相反意见。对我来说，我同意后者。
Firstly, I think it is better that parents keep the money for kids. Since lots of kids are too young to have a good consumption plan. They might buy many toys or other stuff they want for a long time as soon as they have bunch of money. It’s bad for kids to establish a correct value. I think it is acceptable that parents take all the New Year money from young kids. And when they grow older, parents can take a part of it, and teach the kid how to become a rational consumer.
第一，我认为父母帮孩子存着压岁钱比较好。因为很多孩子都太小，还没有好的消费计划。他们很可能在一得到很多钱就去买一堆他们想要的玩具和其他东西。这样不利于孩子树立正确的价值观。我认为父母拿走小孩子全部的压岁钱是能接受的。在他们长大一些后，父母可以拿一部分，然后剩下的用来教孩子如何成为一个理性的消费者。
Secondly, I don’t see an eye to eye when the college girl said her parents take away her money is illegal. She thinks the money is given from others, and it belongs to her. Her parents’ behavior is depriving her private property. However, the Chinese Spring Festival traditional is when someone give red packet to your child, you have to give almost the same denomination to their kid, and since the college girl is no income student, therefore, when her mother said take away the money to pay her high college tuition fees is totally appropriate.
第二，那个大学女孩说她父母拿走她的压岁钱是违法的，我无法赞同。她认为那些钱是别人给她的，是属于她的。她父母的行为是侵犯了她的个人财产。然而，中国的春季传统就是别人给你孩子多少钱的红包，你就得给回他孩子大致面额的红包。鉴于那个大学女孩是个毫无收入的学生，因此她妈妈说要拿她的压岁钱去付她那高昂的大学学费是完全合适的。
To sum up, it is better that parents save New Year money for kids. It is not only could save household spending, but also could stop kids from dipping into their purse.
总而言之，父母帮孩子存着压岁钱是好的。这不仅能够节省家庭开支，还能防止孩子乱花钱。
