cloudy:hello all,new K-S mum.... looking forward for more advise and guidance in up-bringing of children in this competitive society... :lol:Welcome cloudy! The funny thing is that students and outsiders love to lambast parents for being kiasu and creating the competitive culture in Primary schools. Yet we as parents are really just as flabbergasted as everyone else regarding the situation. Indeed, most of us are just doing it because we have no choice and we feel that we owe it to our children. So who's fault is it that the Primary schools are so competitive? Hmmm... this deserves a topic of its own.
