His reply was 'I'll be a bit sad but I guess it's ok cos you lived for so long already.'

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Oops.. is this suppose to be a sad matter?

But your ds arh...totally cool about it.

My granny passed away almost 2 years ago, we were all crying on her funeral, everyone, except my#2. She tried to console me (was she?) with a frustrated tone, \"Mommy, must have faith! She just went to see Jesus first! She will watch over us like an angel now.\"

One of the interesting thing that I discovered recently about reading was that the child might be able to understand and read the book but mentally or socially not matured enough to handle the content. So do watch out as your ds progressing in his reading.

For the same reason, I usually read or at least try to speed-read books before my child does. Besides the emotional and social maturity, I am also concern about the spiritual aspect. For their tender minds can be easily led astray or totally misled. For some books, I spent time to read with her and explain some sophisicated/confusing responses/reactions/thoughts, to guide her in her thinking as she reads along.

My children has a series of books to choose from, those that I verified as 'safe' and 'great' (either for content or good english style) to read. Nowadays, there are too many bad influences, as parents, we really got to be careful.

Agreed. My dw is the gatekeeper ... I do the 1st cut and she does the final one.

But How about ALL those Shows in TV, Movies, Drama Serials that ....
Shows Tons of BEDROOM Scene? Sexual Assault? Violence, Un-Natural Death ....

Unlike Books, U Can't Screen the Shows - Coz We don't know what scene is gonna Come up Next, right?

My Gal's Favourite is Any Detective / Mystery / Murder Stories, B it Books or Shows ....
And Most of these Involved Crime of Passion / Greed where scene depicting violence, etc R so Common ....
:roll: :roll:

Hi Parents,

During my elder boy's time, afternoon lessons were just an extension of the morning lessons. Definitely not supplementary nature.

That's why we hardly watch TV drama serials.

I used to read whatever my elder boy reads. Now he is into some titles recommended by his classmates. Guess I have to trust his discretion.

Asked him before and he said the afternoon lessons are continuation of morning except no extra homework. I accompany him until he finishes his work as daughter is also learning either CL/EL spelling or some other work.

CA1 is coming soon. I am wondering which chapters will be tested for P4 Science. Only the Cycles or plus last year’s Systems and Diversity.
