Lin Xiaotang, a 35-year-old single mom and a top职场 professional, spends all her savings on Olympiad math and English classes for her 10-year-old son Xiaoyu, determined to raise him into an "elite." She even takes away his favorite sketchbook—until Xiaoyu’s teacher shows up with a first-place certificate from the city’s children’s painting contest. In the winning work, Xiaoyu drew his mom working overtime at her computer late at night, with the caption: "Mom’s shoulders carry me, and the dreams she never talked about." Holding the drawing, Lin breaks down in tears, realizing what she’s been "teaching" her son isn’t love, but the anxiety she hid behind "it’s for your own good."
