Parents in China are enrolling children as young as three in special “CEO courses” in a bid to give them an early advantage over their peers.
According to The Telegraph in the UK, the courses teach kids such skills as recognizing real versus fake friendships, conflict resolution and “how to make simple dreams come true.”
“We teach our children to understand how leaders would behave in certain circumstances,” said staff from a school in Beijing.
There are also Presidents and Directors courses for children aged under three. The courses can cost anywhere from 30,000 to 50,000 yuan for a two-year course comprising two classes each week.
