Better focus on next week PSLE oral and Social Studies SA (for GEPpers). Geppers always have extra challenge compare to mainstreamers. See there is still this sticky SS SA just two days before PSLE Oral, not fair to the GEPpers right? :sad: So mainstream parents, dun complain about DSA anymore, if you do, ...

:whut: cannot believe this post... shakes my head...

It's ok, kan cheong parents, all the \"long\" neck will shrink back after the DSA results out and after the PSLE posting results out (can't guarantee about the wrinkles :evil: ). Vlim, our dear hippo :love: , is a case of such last year :rotflmao:

Pls don't even mention wrinkles or white hair, these are even more stressful :nailbite: than psle or dsa. haha :rotflmao:

As and when there comes pop up of mainstream parents commenting that dsa favour gep kids. But i think this thread has done a good job in educating parents what exactly have been going on with parents most willing to share more insight. Like you now cant believe of such comment anymore. You see and hear thru in this forum how some parents have mistaken gep 's advantage on the surface and there came a conman kelvin ong n aristocare saga sucking out their monies. Once again many thanks to chiefkiasu who created this forum. :salute:

As a mom who has a kid in GEP and another in mainstream, I see the advantages and disadvantages of both. DS1 is in RI and is a GEP student while DS2 is a mainstreamer who is applying through DSA this year. I missed the posting the earlier posting mentioned by Leeven but I believe that there are benefits in both GEP and mainstream - after all they are meant for children with different learning needs. No need to fight and argue over who has it worse.

The \"Whut\" and \"I do not believe this posting\" was a direct reaction to the Kiasucy's post \"So mainstream parents, dun complain about DSA anymore, if you do, ..... \". The \".... if you do...\" part may be interpreted by some as a threat or challenge.

I believe that KP is meant for all parents .. constructive comments are welcomed and we should all learn from each other.

Agree - we should all :grphug: and should not point out who does what or who is better or worse off than the other..

Yes, these are times of stress, but it is how we allow our self to react which will measure our ability to overcome it. If we can find something positive to learn in any situation, we will be able to control our state of well-being.
