            zac's mum, not sian de..next few yrs will be interesting.. at P3 &4 I read with dd, at P5 try to let lose, at P6 let kiddo try..we push abit then let go, then jaw dropped when see bad and good surprises, nag go study when they play too hard, nag go to sleep when find aiya cannot la, have enough sleep better at least can think during exam mah..then comes very near to psle, think cant do anything liao, better go praying soon find the zen stage...never mind la pray harder for meeting minimum.. yr side got affiliation mah... just enjoy the primary school stage plus be prepared for kiddo going for another stage of growing up, try use softer method to communicate with kiddo then, see them grow let them fall also ..even if failed like dh says fail in a safer environment better..psst..I cried few times already.. more to come now that going for another stage..

            Thank u for your encouragement, dear!

            I shudder to think of what if he enters the lousy affiliated school...in certain boys schools teen gangsterism can be quite jialat...even this so-called rich school also hearsay got atas drugs problem...we don’t wish him to fall into bad company, that’s the main fear.

              don’t worry lah, I honestly believe those parents who are active in this forum generally have picked up many tips and have guided their children well academically, so results-wise should be easily top 10% lah.

                I thought the so-called rich school has cleaned up it’s act over the years and “not so” jialat now? So, probably nothing much to worry about.

                FYI I’ve got a number of hi-bye friends from my uni / clubbing days that came from that school. Love to hang out with them because rich kids and their friends will pay for all the drinks. Only problem is they are also into E, speed and ice, and most of them pick up those habits in their sec school days. On the plus side, they are not into cigs because it is low SES 😂

                  Wah! Very bad image. Not all in the category as u described lah. Maybe u happened to choose those who hv the juice to pay for u? I’ve met quite a fair number who are purposeful & very keen to pay it forward & nurture their young alumni fellow brethren. There’s strong alumni spirit & you don’t find this in many other schools. You’ve got to be in the family of schools to know how is it like. One spoiled apple (or the few) does not a basket full represent lah.

                    Some things remain unchanged...the C.R.A. progeny is still having free flow of such, with parents freely bailing them out, even funding their alternative lifestyle.

                    Esteema, I’m not talking about your DS school. The other one. Unless u can assure me there’s more good guys than bad hats over there.

You’ve got to be in the family of schools to know how is it like. One spoiled apple (or the few) does not a basket full represent lah.[/quote]Of course lah... how can some individuals represent the culture of a school with more than a thousand students. I’m quite sure most of the students are fantastic (that said, those guys that I used to hang out with are also fantastic individuals - plus, they are not all chiong and no brains type - a number of them were from Med and Law fac and I assume, good doctors and lawyers, and probably fantastic, alumni today). Unfortunately, the reality is those “hearsay” stuff that zac’s mum mentioned, is true, at least in the 80s and 90s.

                      Note: it would also be fair to say that it’s not a unique “problem” with that school then, there was also a sub-culture that exists in our premier university - whether you seek it out or are even aware of it is another thing. YOLO.
