If we want our children to learn those values, we parents must of course try our very best to be their first teacher to show and teach them all that. That should be one of our responsibilies:) -
While I agree that teaching shd come from parents, it is not utmost important!
"Practise what you preach" is! The kids these days have a great sense of awareness and they r watching us all the time! -

I think I am a good citizen who give way to the needy when boarding the bus. My elder boy who seldom takes public bus with me is able to do the same too. My P4 boy whom I always take bus with DOES NOT :oops: Why? I thought I hv bn setting good examples with my behaviour and verbal teachings.While I agree that teaching shd come from parents, it is not utmost important!

perhaps u can look at it another way, ie, if u have NOT been, then will your elder kid do it? :? Well nebber know...
Guess some kids r more receptive...some not that they're not careful...just they cannot be bothered...
Still, fundamentally, a leader gotta lead by example... -
As long we parents keep showing and sharing (telling them nicely) the right values with our kids, they will surely and slowly pick up some of them. It is also true that we should always set good example for them to emulate:)

{sorry, all thumbs this morning. trying this again.}ZacK:
Actually the idea was not my own but I read it somewhere and decided that it made sense :lol:
Brought my son to the supermarket again today. As he was agreeable during lunch today, told him that we could stop by the supermarket to grab Yakult for him... This time round while on the way there I reminded him that he could get anything (Yakult inclusive) up to a value of S$3.
At the supermarket, saw that canned lychee was on offer and picked up a can... Never did I expect my son to go \"Noooo papa, we had lychee yesterday, so we don't have to buy it today...\" Hmmm caught me by surprise as he had never said No to lychee before :shock:
Anyway, found the Yakult and took a pack of 5... It cost S$2.85... Told him that a pack is $2.85 and 2 packs would cost almost $6... So I tested him if we could get 2 packs? He said we don't have enough $$ for 2 packs so just get 1 would be enough.
Hmmm... Wonder if it was fluke or was he just really in a good mood
... We took the pack of Yakult, gave him $3 and queued with him to make payment. This time round was really effortless as there was no crying or begging that I had to deal with.
Have decided to adopt the same approach for his birthday and Xmas where he'll be given a budget of $40 on each occasion to get whatever he wants.
Hopefully by doing this... He'll learn to appreciate that resources are limited and he needs to choose wisely on how he should utilise his resources to meet his wants.
Very glad for you that this is working! I'm inspired to try harder! -
Hi everyone!
I bouhgt chicken soup for the KID’S soul 2.What do you think it useful for character development?Is anyone bought for ur kids/urself?Please share your views.My P3 son never listen to me at all.He like to read storybooks.Information books also he reads.Today only I buy,hope he will read.
Thanks in advance. -
You are right! All kids are born to be kind and good, it’s only the education after that changes them. So both family and school should try their best to teach kids the right values set good examples themselves. Parents always influence children the most, so u need to pay attention to u everyday behavior to set them examples by yourselves. Then the kids will do just as you do. Well, my parents brought me up in this way.

I donch agree with this belief. Can see how 'demanding' and difficult some babies/toddlers are...and they donch need special training and they r not imitating the adults as the adults at home also donch behave that way.
