      Hello my pals!


      I realise kiasuparents love acronyms! but when i first join i was very confuse! not because i can't figure out the meanings but because some of them have double meaning for me!

      :? for e.g.. DS for you guys mean dear son, but being a parents who is familial with special needs, DS for me means down syndrome!

      And also DSA might mean direct school admission but i instinctively think it means down syndrome associaton! hahaha.. i for awhile thought i chance on a whole community of parents with special need kids! :shock:

      juz thot i share my funny shocking experiences! :lol:

        hi kiasumam,


        i realised you had not 'reported' to the newbie section; while this is not your virgin post, i'll just shift this funny discovery of yours into the newbies' thread. πŸ˜‰

        you will find more acronyms http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/KSPAcronyms - the academics related ones are truly mindboggling. if you submit some common ones relating to this community, you can also earn some meager points and be on your way to participating in our next http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewforum.php?f=33. πŸ˜‰

        welcome to KSP 😎

[/quote]hi amylqf! yah, i know the acronym meanings now, but i think to a lot of parents with special need kids, they do not consider it \"negative\" either πŸ™‚ it's just gods doing. take it as a gift πŸ˜„ i think special need education is also very impt part of our society .. just wondering if we have a thread for special need kids?
