2012 PSLE Discussions and Strategy

Here is what gets said around my son these days...

- Gasp! You sniffed! Are you falling sick?!
- Don't eat too much cake, sugar reduces body immunity.
- Drink this herbal tea, it will keep stress away.
- Don't go out in the rain, your father will get the car and bring it here.
- Stop digging your nose, flus get transmitted that way. No nose digging until after PSLE.
- That person sneezed. Don't walk into his cloud of sneeze.
- I just sneezed. I can't put you to bed till I feel better.
- Let's take the escalator, not the lift. Too many germs float about in the confined space of the lift.

The worst was when I said to my son...
- That man does not look healthy.
Even my husband gave me a strange look.[/quote]


:rotflmao: Oh I thought I was the only crazy one. At least DH always look at me like can you please relax?

If I may say get them out in the sun abit as Vit D is good for them, bring them out to the park or beach maybe over the weekend, let them run around, let out their pent-up energy, cheer them up & good for the general well being. Actually, even among their friends, they are exposed to viruses so we should not stress ourselves too much over how much they can do this or that or before their PSLE, we will go insane.

I think it is too late... the Moms here are all :siao: ALREADY. It is WE who need some sun. How about a weekend in Bali?

Sun_2010:

Only I was paranoid :frustrated: . Watched like a hawk over what she ate , avoided crowds and every ride we went I was on my toes to protect DD from accidents...even repeatedly warned DD, that if she were to fall , NOT to use her right hand to break the fall.
Refused to let DD fly the MegaZip too much to DD's disappointment.

Its a mommy thing, the daddies dont get it

And you are doin the right thing by building up the immunity.
Sleep and sunshine and healthy food are important

Not to scare all you paranoid mums but at the end of it , I was glad I did what I did.
Based on DD's experience, there were a few with runny nose and sneezes during the PSLE exams on Day 1 .The air con environment not only worsens it , it helps to spread this to others too. By the last exam many more got it. Even DD has slight fever on the day before Science.

Just dont go over board though , otherwise your well meaning DHs will take you to IMH :rotflmao:

[BeContented]

Am NOT going to let hubby see all these.

Last night, he held my hands, looked deeply into my eyes. Hmmm, he hasn't done that for years.

He said : \"Mommy, PSLE is just 3+weeks away. Can you dun be so relax & make sure our son is studying hard & do well?!?! Can you make sure they drink lotsa water, make honey water daily & get well quickly so that you dun spread to the kids?!?!\" :slapshead:
