“到底是送孩子出去读高中好，还是读大学好呢？”最近，不只一个朋友这样问我。

"Exactly is to send their children out good high school,Or read university? Good?"recently,More than one of my friends ask me.

　　说实话，没有见到这个要出去留学的孩子，对他/她的了解也仅停留在家长们片言只语的介绍，我真不敢草率地给出一个答案。

To tell you the truth,Haven't seen this to go out to study abroad children,To his/her understand also only stay in parents just a few words of introduction,I really can't thoughtlessly give an answer.

　　如果孩子性格比较外向，独立生活能力和学习能力都比较强，接触过并喜欢国外的教育方式，并且家里希望他未来在国外就业甚至移民，那可能高中阶段送孩子出去会比较合适；若孩子这些方面都还没准备好，家人也希望孩子将来回国就业，那就建议本科或者研究生阶段再出去留学。作为一个写过多年的留学新闻的“旁观者”，我只能根据我的理解，给出这样的建议。然后我会建议家长们带孩子去咨询专业的留学顾问。

If a child the personality is outgoing,Independent living ability and learning ability is strong,Contact and like foreign education mode,And home hope his future employment in foreign countries even immigration,That may be the high school stage to send their children out will be more appropriate;If a child these aspects are still not ready,The family also hope that in the future children to employment,That suggested undergraduate or graduate student stage to go out to study abroad.As a wrote many years of study in the news"onlookers",I can only according to my understanding,Such Suggestions are given.Then I'll suggested that parents with children to consulting professional consultants to study the.

　　其实很多朋友私下里跟我说，之所以选择高中阶段送孩子出去留学，主要是冲着国外宽松的教育环境和素质教育的理念而去的，根本上说，也是因为不忍心孩子再受高考的苦。高考有多苦？只有经历过的学生和家长才有深刻的感受。对于那些不曾经历过的人，只要看看每年千军万马挤高考这座“独木桥”的壮烈场面，也会有些许感悟。

In fact many friends privately say with me,Chose high school send children go out to study abroad,Mainly at foreign loose education environment and quality education concept and go,Radically said,Also because of can't bear to children by the suffering of the university entrance exam again.College entrance examination have much bitter?Only the experience of the students and parents have deep feelings.For those who do not have experienced,Just look at the university entrance exam this year squeeze an army"bridge"Responding to the scene of the,There will also be some feeling.

　　也许正因为很多父母都有这样的想法，才使得留学“低龄化”的趋势越来越严重。他们殊不知，留学其实是逃避了一个难题，却要面临着更多难题。

Perhaps because of many parents have such idea,That study abroad"DiLingHua"Trend more and more serious.They little imagine,To study abroad is actually escape from a difficult question,But will face more problems.

　　近日发布的《中国留学发展报告（2012）》蓝皮书指出，当前中国出国留学生呈现“低龄化”趋势。相关数据显示，2010年中国出国留学的高中及以下学历学生人数为7.64万，占当年出国留学总人数的19.8%。2011年高中生出境学习人数为7.68万，占当年中国总留学人数的22.6%，占比逐年增加。而与之相伴，在外留学人员的安全问题频繁发生，留学安全越来越受到社会各界的关注和重视。不止留学安全，海归变“海待”的问题，也让不少家长头疼。

Recently released[Study in China development report(2012)]Blue book points out that,China's current go abroad students present"DiLingHua"trend.Related data show,In 2010, the Chinese students studying abroad and under high school degree students for 76400,That accounts for 19.8% of the total number of studying abroad.2011 high school students study abroad the number for 76800,The study of China's total population 22.6%,Accounts for more than increases year by year.And the associated,Studying abroad security problems occur frequently,Study abroad security more and more the focus of the society and attention.More than study safety,Returnees change"The sea to"problems,Also let many parents have a headache.

　　“我不太建议学生高中毕业马上出国留学，我看到太多惨痛的教训。”不久前，一位淡出留学圈的某留学中介高层在微博上如是“吐槽”。此番言论一经发出便引来不同的回应，支持者、反对者，各有一套说辞。

"I don't suggest students graduate from high school immediately go abroad to study abroad,I see too many painful lessons."Not long ago,A study out a circle in intermediary top in micro bo above"Vomit tank".The remarks has been issued will draw different response,supporters/opponents,Each have a saying.

　　我个人觉得其中有个观点比较中肯，“主要还是看小孩自身的能力。不管哪个年龄段出国留学，至少都要提前2-3年规划，培养小孩各方面的能力，除了学习能力，生活能力，社交能力和性格培养同样重要。”

Personally, I think one of the view compare to the point,"The main or see the child one's own power.No matter which age study abroad,At least want to advance 2-3 years of planning,Children develop various aspects ability,In addition to learning ability,The ability of living,Social ability and character cultivation is also important."

　　从概率上讲，年龄越小的小孩出国留学出现的问题也就越多，但是能否适应国外的教育环境，以及能否留学成功，也是因人而异。倘若每个有留学计划的家庭在送孩子出国留学前，都能认真做好规划和准备，着重从国际视野、学习能力、独立生活能力、社交能力和语言等多方面做准备，那么留学就不是一个高风险的事情。

Speaking from the probability,The smaller the age of the child study abroad the problem are also more,But can you adapt yourself to the foreign education environment,And whether we can study abroad,Also vary from person to person.If everyone in a study plan in the family to send children abroad for study abroad before,Can earnestly planning and preparation,Emphatically from the international field of vision/Ability to learn/Independent living skills/Social ability and language preparation and other aspects,So study abroad is not a risky things.

　　最后给有意留学的学生和家长一个忠告：教育没有真正的捷径，留学亦是如此，不要“拔苗助长”，也不要越俎代庖。（于冬雪)

Finally to potential to study abroad students and parents a piece of advice:Education has no real shortcut,To study abroad is also so,Don't"Spoil things by excessive enthusiasm",Don't do it for someone else.(Steps in)
