There's no doubt in my mind that the quality of education and the people whom your son interacts with plays an important role in your son's growth. However, to expect that your son's school will define his character is just as narrow-sighted and irresponsible as parents blaming video games to be the cause of a child's violent behavior.
The stereotypical Chinese parents tend to over-commit in terms of resources, stifling the child's natural growth, while their American counterparts tend to over-neglect, with completely unpredictable results. Why choose the lesser of two evils when there's a middle path?

要考慮到：學校並不是一個孩子所收到的教育的一切
很大一部份需要父母來指導。
你覺得就近讀書質量不夠好，你可以補充。
你覺得中國教育太死板，你可以提示孩子去獨立思考。
你覺得國際學校太輕鬆，你可以對孩子的要求高一點，讓他知道這個世界是需要競爭的，需要努力的。
如果你覺得這個事實對孩子來說太殘酷了，那你也可以順其自然。
你孩子去了重點，他也不一定就是讀書的料子。總而言之，你為了去重點學校所做的投資，也許你在孩子身上多花一點時間也能起到同樣的效果。
