SHANGHAI June 7(AP)—A 16-year-old girl's suicide after she was barred from a key exam draw attention to increasing worries over academic pressures as millions of Chinese students began annual college entrance tests on Wednesday.
The three-day exam viewed as important to future career and financial success has a record 9.5 million high school students across China competing for just 2.6 million university places. For kids and parents alike it's a difficulty that experts say causes extreme emotional distress. "Pressure from study and exams is a top reason for psychological problems among Chinese youth " said Jin Wuguan director of the Youth Psychological Counseling Center at Shanghai's Ruijin Hospital.
In China's increasingly success oriented pressure-cooker cities academic stress is seen as a rising cause of youth suicides and even murders of parents by children who are driven crazy by intolerable pressure to perform.
According to her family and newspaper accounts 16-year-old Wu Wenwen drowned herself after she was stopped at the exam room door because her hair wasn't tied back as her school required. Returning in tied hair she was then told the end-of-term exam had already started and she was too late to take it. In tears Wu called her mother and then disappeared. Her body was found the same night in a nearby lake.
China doesn't keep comprehensive statistics on student suicides but Jin said health care professionals see the problem worsening even among elementary students. Most Chinese schools still lack advisers and teachers receive little training in spotting symptoms of emotional distress Jin said. Parents are little help often piling on pressure while ignoring their children's emotional development he said. "It's a basic unwillingness or inability to recognize and deal with with emotional problems " Jin said.
Wang Yufeng of Peking University's Institute of Mental estimates the rate of emotional disorders such as depression among Chinese students under age 17 at up to 32 percent a total of 30 million students.
Others say that figure may be as high as 50 percent. A survey last year by the government's China Youth and Children Research Center showed 57.6 percent of students felt highly distressed by academic pressures.
