      [quote=\"janet_lee88\"]any parent here still have to deal with kids in sec 1 with primary school behaviour :mad: mine here asked me to let him play nintendo ds when he is done with homework...mid-year exam starts end of this month (30/4)...he told me his friends are allowed to play...told him, too bad your mother says NO.[/


      i am facing a dd with mood swings.. Sometimes she just snaps at her siblings. I know she s going through bodily changes and all. Told her to learn self control.

      I hAv been seeing a sec 3-4 couple in uniform near my house bus stop recently behaving intimately and kissing. They are from the sec sch nearby, and it was during their dismissal time, cos all the sec students ll wait for the buses there. Yesterday, I buay tahan called their sch and voiced my concern to the clerk. She was not the least appreciative, her tone was like 'y u call me to tell me' she asked me to take photos of the couple, which I told her, I couldn't , as I wld alarm them. Told her they could perhaps send someone down to secretly observe . Really worried that this young couple will get into 'trouble'
      What will you ladies do if you see such situations? I know, we see lots if them in malls, but this one happened near the school.

      Sorry for the off topic.
      Any tips on prepping for history n geog?

        Quietly snap a photo if possible. In any case, I wouldn't call the school clerk who probably wouldn't care. Will drop short email to Principle & discipline head.

          if i give in to his request to play nintendo ds, he will use the same tactic again if his classmates get to play wii. our agreement is NO hand-held games during school term. this week, he has 3 or 4 tests (can't remember bcos i'm quite hands-off with his work)...which is why i am mad when he mentioned playing ds. already 13 and in sec 1, but still as playful.

          Janet, boys never grow up. Just look at the L size one we have at home.

                the XL size i have here doesn't grow up...this i agree.


                soon, i will have a MORE rebellious teenager who would argue and compare.

                as for girls, i have a problem with this 8 year old chilli padi already.

                :?: :?:

                  Maybe its not your ds? Maybe its you who need to adjust to his different phrase? Just suggesting.......

                      Hi. My son is going to sit for PSLE this year. Since your children sat for PSLE last year, could you kindly let me know which top school papers are the nearest reflection of PSLE difficulty level?


                      Thank you in advance.

                        Except for NYPS, who set very tough papers. The rest of the schools are OK. PSLE standard may vary from years to years. This year papers might be tough. 2010 papers were easy & 2011/2012 papers were average.
