OUR CHILDREN

Heard a sad news over radio early in the morning today.

A P5 boy’s body was found at his block yesterday. He took his oral examination yesterday.

I can’t help to think that he may have committed suicide due to his poor performance during his oral examination? This may be my assumption but I kind of trust my instinct that I may be right afterall.

What makes him take the plunge? It’s really no easy feat to be able to muster that courage and jump off a flat, you know….

How does nowsadays parents / teachers rate poor performance or good performance?

Does poor performance refers to not being able to get A*?

What’s wrong with the education school system / parents nowsadays?

I am considered a weird mum in my daughter’s teachers’ eye. Why? Cos I give her freedom in whatever she does… She is given permission to fail her test or exam as long as she has put in effort in her studies. She is given the permission to be able to fall as long as she is able to pick up where she falls and move on with her life.

I was not like this when she first started P1. We both learned through the hard way and after I have changed my own mindset, we are much happier and are indeed a pair of happy mummy and daughter. She is willing to share with me her problems and always count on me to be there for her whenever she needed support from me. I am gald that GOD gives me a chance to see the light and am grateful to HIM.

Do you love your children more just because they score A* in all their subjects and not because they are YOUR children? Yes! YOUR CHILDREN is GOD’S gift to you!

Ask yourself these questions:
1) Have you hug your children everyday?
2) Have you say “I LOVE YOU” to your children everyday?
3) Have spend quality time with your children everyday? Even for at least ½ hour?
4) Have you been cooking dinner for your children whenever you can?
5) Have you tell your children that you are always available for them whenever they needed you regardless you are at work or not?
6) Have you tell your children that failure is the mother of success and do not be afraid to fall. Just have the courage to pick up and move forward?

Start doing some of the above if you have?

Give OUR CHILDREN back their CHILDHOOD! We had ours and have no reason to deprive them of their childhood….
