What did you say to your child on the first day of school?
-
First day of school: Honey relax and enjoy urself ok, jus pay attention in class and everything will be fine.... (trying to reasure her as she is attending a new school tis yr....)
The next few days after hearing tat she has taken some tests (yes already!!): Wat!!!!How could u make such a simple mistake...... U r so going to enrichment centres...... and start doin the assessments I bought. Wat have u been doin the entire hols???? :oops: -
Last thing I said before watching my P4 son enter the school gates on his first day of school: "Wah lao… your bag so heavy… first day why so kiasu and bring so many things?!"

Heyya cluelessmum,
Waaah… Which school is your child in?
So poor thing, got tests liao…
If that happened to me, i would be like
so kan-cheong too…
Relax. Take a deep breath.
Assess your child’s difficulties.
Then, make the decisions based
on your child’s learning strengths
if you reali must send her for some
enrichment lessons, ya… No point just
dumping our children in an enrichment
centre that doesn’t really…well… enrich.
Errrm… if i may ask…
What was done during school hols aniwaes…? -

Unfortunately, kiasuism is not hereditary. He is a most laid-back kid. Makes me wonder what I have done wrong in his up-bringing :rant:

Nowadays in the morning, my last words to dd before dh sends her to school is : Hurry up! Take your things! Don't sit there and daydream! You only have 5 more minutes!
Sigh.... Mommy more kancheong than child. :stupid: -
Heyya schellen,
Guess kiasu-ism leads to kancheong-ism eventually…
Same-same wif me lor… -
Dear buds,
Think the tests are some kind of assessment on their Maths/English ability. It kinda freak me out a little... cuz nt sure if its goin to be included in their CA marks
Lemme think :? ....during the hols, she had:
2 days of Chalet
3 days of Club Med
1 week of Chinese enrichment
2 days of lesson on astrology
3 days weekly of badminton practices
and the rest.... computer games :oops: -
I said lots of things before sending her up the school bus:
1. Rem to look out for aunties/teachers to bring u up to the hall
2. Ask ppl if you get lost
3. Rem to drink water and go to the toilet, dont hold your bladder
4. Rem that mummy has put some money in your wallet
5. Rem that your school bus is no. 32
6. Rem this, that blah blah haha… -
don’t fight and don’t lose your water bottle!
alamak!
