Abstract With the increasingly fierce education competition, mothers in urban areas take more responsibilities than traditional roles in the family, and motherhood has become a strong source of anxiety for them. Mothers, assuming the role of education designers, integrate educational resources inside and outside school to help their children gain an edge in fierce education competition. At the same time, fathers are expected to be more involved in parenting. In-depth interviews with 10 pairs of parents from middle-class families in Shenzhen show that motherhood anxiety encompasses selection anxiety, education anxiety and stratification anxiety. An overly rigid talent selection system and insufficient quality education resources leave children with slim chance of success, which triggers selection anxiety. The double reduction policy fails to be well implemented and shadow education lurks everywhere, which triggers education anxiety. The education stratification has enduring impact on children's future career and social status, which triggers stratification anxiety. Fathers' involvement in parenting is, to some extent, a balance mechanism for motherhood anxiety, but currently it is far from common for fathers to get involved in upbringing their children. The introduction of the “double reduction” policy in 2021 is a turning point regarding burden reduction in Chinese education, and it is sure to have impact on the parenting style of Chinese parents. In the context of burden reduction in education, in order to ensure equality of educational opportunity, we need to roll out policies in response to delaying educational stratification and increasing interaction among families, communities and society at large.

Key words： motherhood anxiety fathers' involvement in parenting middle-class family education burden reduction in education double reduction policy
