Hello dear fanji. You know, these three things are all important to a kid, but if I were to choose one, please allow me to choose character in spite of your placing it after the other two. My explanation to this is: if a kid has a very good character or personality, it would be much easier to develop the other two talents in education and ability. You see, whenever we make friends, we would take into consideration his personality in the first place instead of his education and ability. At least this is my way of choosing to have a friend. I hope that my humble view is somewhat agreeable to you in some sense. Thanks for your discussion, dear fanji.

Hello dear williamjisir, I super agree with you.
what do we humans live for? happiness,of course!But, you know happiness is most realated to one's attitude or i can say character, for happiness is what one feels inside and it has so little to do with higher ability or better education.
and If i become a parent i will expect nothing but that my child forms a healthy character and lives a happy and carefree life.
Thank you for your sensible words, for i also choose friend by personality, indeed a good personality will make people more easier to contact and make me more comfortable to speak with them.
have a good day!

Dear fanji, i really think you should focus much more on your child's character building.
firstly,it is so difficult to change a child's personality once they are developed completely in your child's early life.while as for the education and ability i think there are still sufficient time to make the children capable of .
secondly, good character plays such an important role in people's sense of happiness, for happiness is what one feels inside .
Hope your child happy!

Hi,there! Thanks for your response.I also agree a child's character should come first:) I'm sorry but I don't have a kid yet.Did I make any misunderstandings? If I did,then I'm really sorry for that.I raised this discussion just because many friends and even my family members mention about that sometimes.I just think it might be an interesting topic for mylotters to talk about here:) Thanks again for your attention!
