There is a saying in Chinese which says it is always better to teach a person who are hungry to fish than to give him some fish. We can find the deep meaning of the sentence is to tell people to teach others the way to do something rather than give him the things he needs.

In our daily life, our parents often help us too much, which makes us lazy and not know how to look after ourselves as well as others. If the situation continues, we may never develop the good habit and may be too selfish. So they are giving us things directly rather than teaching us how to get the things.

What should we do? We should realize that we should try to study whatever things we can do ourselves and do them.
