Haha Cherrygal ! other than all these incessant talking, it is really quite fun to have a conversation with boys like ours. Most teachers tell me that they like to chat with him BUT only if it is outside school curriculum hours. For me, i am getting concerned only when his grades started to fall this yr and that he has gotten rougher with his choice of words and behaviour - which I felt it is time to TOE the Line !OrangeJuice:
another trait of my son that could drive pple mad / crazy is that he wont take \"no\" for an answer and he will try his utmost best to get the answer that he wants....this could be very tiring and irritating !
OMG, we seem to be sharing the same boy for a son! hahaha
DH and I seem to think we have one of the most irritating kids on earth... I tell DS we can tahan as parents but his teachers will not be so patient. He is silly for getting into their bad books... but our advice all fall on deaf ears.OrangeJuice:
That's what I have been doing too... pray every day that he will grow up!Looks like the only solution is to keep reminding him to watch his behaviour at school and wait for him to outgrow this \"active' stage...sigh ...
I believe your DS is younger than mine, so he perhaps is behaving the way boys shld be at his age
I think as long as he isnt hurting anyone at school or disrupting lessons, he shld be fine

Hi OrangeJuice and cherrygal,
On the bright side, I believe both your boys will have no problem with Oral next time

haha ... Thanks cherrygal for proving me right ! :imcool:
It is good in a sense, you know , that the kids are able to express themselves clearly and confidently. As i mentioned earlier, it does helps in the Oral and don't under-estimate the marks...in P5/P6 , Chinese Oral takes up 50 marks and English Oral is 30 marks.
So both of you have a champion there !

maybe he's the kind who needs attention from others? are you a working mum?My son loves to talk since he was a toddler, I wasnt surprised that each year his form teacher would tell me that he talks too much in class. Also, I get feedback that he gets restless easily and would fidget with stuff like stationery, disturbing his classmates sometimes. I would counsel him after feedback and he'd improve after a while....
Previously, teachers and friends tell me maybe he is like that becos he is bright and found the class teachings too boring for him. This yr, he is in the GEP and again I get the same feedback, but what has gotten bad is that his grades are now affected.
I have been trying v hard all these yrs reminding him to behave in class, explaining that such behaviour is also interrupting his teachers and his friends. He doesnt seem to realise that his behaviour is affecting others. I was also told that sometimes his choice of words can be \"off\" and it would appear that he is rude or arrogant (altho that is not his intention).
I have tried talking to him (soft and hard approach) before, now I am also taking stiffer steps like removing all of his privileges like computer time until I see improvement on grades and better feedback on his behaviour. I would appreciate any advice on how I can help him improve on his behaviour ? -

I am a part time SAHM and DS tells me it’s not lack of attention. It’s just his personality to like to talk three talk four… and he forgets "advice" and "scoldings" easily.
