Felt better when I don't think about it lor.. Haiz.. Was managing expectation with myself n in the end cannot decide wat is the win win situation. Discipline DD yesterday and then as usual after that think to myself if my expectation too high.. And then don't know wat to do... Haiz.... Still having a headache of this matter.

Know what you mean. I go through it myself. Sometimes I managed to put on brake, sometimes I can't and \"lan ga\" with DD1, then she cries, I cry, everyone cry. :rotflmao:

But very strange, my expectation not so high for DS and bb. I wonder if it is becos P1 is so near for her........I started to drink herbal tea to calm myself, hope it helps, then will not \"lan ga\" with DD1 so many times.

Drink herbal tea helps? Then I better start to drink also so i can cool down a bit. My DS tells everyone, my mommy is not scared of anyone cos she's v fierce..

Think maybe can cancel out those that are affiliated with schools, or else she will go for P2B, unless distance is a consideration :evil:

Your DD has music lessons?

Really depend what you wish your DD to achieve and also what she wants.

Do you want her to become a musician?

Do you want her to go via the non-academic DSA route?

I enrol my DD1 for music lesson, but my main objective is to anchor her personality and temperament. Also to broaden her experience.

I do not want her to become a musician, at least not as a means of living.

As an option to non-academic DSA route, also no, becos the competition is very tough......anyway to go via this route will take up too much time away from her studies, which I think she need to spend more time on to master.

If the child enjoys performing (such pieces), surely why not? There will always be someone better than us... and not as good as us. so why bother competing with the rest? The real competition is within oneself...

Well, now since most parents seem to be getting over phase 2C excitement, let me intro meself.

SAHM, who freelances occasionally. My youngest was born in Jan 2005. Will be following his older siblings for his P1 next year... I got so mighty excited when he finally started reading by himself the last few weeks. Still 3-letter words but slowly and surely. I will have to start on his writing and pick up MT (after dd's PSLE in 2 months' time! ;)) and he was already groaning- oh NO! :evil:
