近日，我国有关根据儿童身高进行优惠的长期政策再次引发争议，许多家长呼吁采取以年龄为标准的方法。

Although policies differ across regions, a National Development and Reform Commission document from 2017 stipulates that children less than six years of age or less than 1.2 meters tall don't need a ticket to enter certain public tourist spots, and children 6 to 18 years of age can enjoy half-price access.

尽管各地政策不尽相同，国家发改委2017年的一份文件规定，6岁以下或身高不足1米2的儿童进入特定公共旅游景点无需买票，6-18岁的人可享受半价。

Public transportation systems across China also apply height-based discounts for children.

全国公共交通系统也根据儿童身高进行优惠。
