You may want to try calling them to check.<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1615344</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1615344</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[FantasyLandDreams]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 16 Dec 2015 04:14:06 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to club worrypigs on Wed, 16 Dec 2015 03:53:23 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">Are there places that hire teenagers aged 15?

Her son who graduated with a degree chose not to work full-time but only pick and choose not to hold down a job.  She took him to a coffee shop after dinner one evening where a sign says "Dish washer for hire… pay $xx".  "Dish washer manager $3K".  Then she told the son, "Even a dish washer gets paid higher than you" and you have a degree.  Now the son is working in an IT industry with a pay higher than $3K.  Sometimes, we as parents worry but it is the facts of life out there, that will change the child’s thinking if correct comparisons are made.  Kudos to this friend for her quick-thinking.</p>

Let your ds do whatever he wants: Sleep in class, no pay attention, etc. Usually, ds should get a low mark for coming exam. If he really does, take him to the cleaner. Tell him:\" Fine, you want me to 养you, first you must show that you are worthy of me doing this by working. WIth your results, the only thing you can do is clean the streets.\" Force your ds to do it and 讲道理to him after he realises his mistake.<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1582275</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/1582275</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[faithfuldad123]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 23 Sep 2015 13:31:50 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to club worrypigs on Tue, 22 Sep 2015 23:53:40 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p></p><blockquote><b>XYZ1:</b><blockquote style="border:1px solid black"> AGREE, ds wants to stop school and wants to stay at home.
