      think of this way,sometx...傻人有傻福...life full of ups and downs too...


      my frd did well in primary school...then went to good secondary school.but didn't do well in O-level,ended up in poly.he did PT degree n now do very well in his career.

      another frd,has always been top students till uni.however,study smart doesn't mean work smart.work smart sometx oso depends on luck 天时地利人和.due to his arrogant attitude,he always changes his job.

        So much so that I wake up in the night and cannot fall back into sleep.

        we still hv time rt? Our children are only in p3... We parents must also take care of ourselves ... A happy parent will bring up a happy child. Don't transfer our stress to our kids, they can feel it. I was pressuring ds too much during ca1, and I adopted a more \"spread out\" approach during sa1, I think it was mentally better for him and me. That means I hv to make more sacrifices like not watchg my fav tv programs almost 3 weeks before sa1....加油, we still hv p4 & p5 to work things out, don't get yourself burnt out now.

        babe, i planned revision for daughter 4 weeks before her SA...but i was burnt 3 days before her exams...i was coaching her half way when i felt breathless and had to take a breather. getting stressed out at this stage is crazy...and i hope to be able to use the June holidays to revise from scratch...find out what went wrong and work on it. p6 is 3 years from now...i am telling myself to take care.

            I hate it when mums cosy up to me and first question is, ‘does your child have any tuition? Which subject?’ Is that the only thing in their heads? Taught son to reply them, ‘daddy teaches’.

                I do not ask SIL what tuition her daughter has...it's better to stay away on subject of education.

                  Ya… That’s what I did… i deliberately asked kid to give some answer because i was fed up with the endless questioning… not only us but to anyone she meets. But when she found out otherwise, she badmouthed about us to everyone that we didn’t let her know… So we became the bad ones…

                    I don’t feel offended when asked about if and where my kids attend tuition. I take it as a natural question on many kancheong mummies’ mind, no harm. Same for those who ask about marks. I told my kids, it is ok to tell if their friends or friends’ parents want to know, but we don’t ask others in case other people don’t like it. To us, we don’t worry if they feel inferior after getting the answer. If they ask, they can handle it.

                      Usually if I recommend any tutor, I do so only if he/she is able to deliver. It’s a big risk doing so. Unfortunately, the tutor showed true colours after a year and now I feel very bad to have given a good testimony. My sincere apologies.

                        Would like to give my kids headstart. Many thanks
