aiya he will learn not now army will learn and by sec sch he will start to say alrd unless he is the rare few just make sure he respects you and absolutely no vulgar infront of any adults during soccer also. sec 4 this yr all guys knows vulgar and most use it daily.

if theres a phone take it away and play music he likes and if theres any learning that can be done online let him do it the comp just seems so much more intresting than a book and also reward like ice cream or time to go play ball downstairs if he completes papers on time wif a good score and sit through out. and another good method is make him pack his stuff on the table reshuffling and making things neater will increase the attention span also. by now his mind prolly conditioned to no focus on his current configuration of his table

I need help. My son changed a lot this year when he started his Sec 2.


He goes for branded shoes, clothings, dedorant etc. I only bought some of the things for him and told him it's considered as birthday gift and he needs to take care and use till Sec 4.

He agreed. However, his promise is just say say only and it became lies and lies. He would tell me he is going out with friends to study. I doubt that but can't really check on him as I'm working. I also worried if I stopped him from going out with friends, the more he would not tell me anything.

I found out that he also had been taking money from my bag without asking. When I asked him, he denied without changing colour. He claimed he didn't have enough money to spend and he likes to eat. However, the amount of pocket money is based on his own request and it's agreed upon that he could keep the extra if he did not spend all. So, apparently the money is not enough as he likes to go out with friends and spend without control and management.

He is always on the phone watching either the Japanese comics or the commentary on the game. He told me not to interfere with his school and he would show me good result. However, the result is no good, yet he would compare with those that are not doing well and claimed that he is good.

This year is streaming and I'm worried. But it's too late as tomorrow would be the last paper. Other than his result, I'm not worried about his character, telling lies, stealing, going for branded etc etc.

I'm at a lost of what to do. If parents have any similar encounter, please advise. Thanks a lot!

let the father settle the stealing part make sure he enforce the importance of honesty, academics also tell him the importance of Os lor, and the branded stuff must be the group of friends he is mixing with, dont stop or prevent him from going or mixing with his group of friends NEVER do that he will only hate you more. may be you should increase the pocket money abit and ask him to do chores at home and let him earn a little more money from doing the chores, tho you should let the chores be optional also. anws im sec 4 this yr and know all about the branded items obsession and guilty as i am i have stolen in pri 4 b4 and got wacked. never done it after and treat and talk to your boy nicely and tell him nicely also if he is being rude back. lead by example and not force

MUST teach them not to look down of foundation and Normal students too!

[quote=\"zbear\"]I heard from my colleague whose dd just entered P1 in a well known girls' school. On the 2nd day of school, her dd witnessed a scene in the canteen whereby a gang of P1 kids bullied (hit) another girl. What is the reason - becos this girl sports very short hair n they don't like her look.


Goodness, I am shocked that kids (especially girls) can gang bully at only P1?

2nd day of school for P1...certainly that could not be the fault of the well known school, ya?

If the well-known school has put in place a seamless system to guide the new girls in the canteen with adult figures around, this mischief would not have happen. Partly school fault too.[/quote]its in all humans to want to feel good mah by putting people down they will feel good, sch shld teach them to encourage and help to feel good about themselves instead of disciplining them lah but still teaching them that is the parents job lor since sch nvr teach such things
