I have this habit of reading something while doing “business” Usually I will bring along newspaper, emails or SOP into that cubical and enjoying the section. I read an article this morning on “Pet lovers learn art of animal speaks” People are learning to communicate with their pooch thru a 2 to 5 days workshop and it cost about $450 to $2000. Learning their body language and understand their behavior. How often do you spend time with your furry kid? Do you really need to spend money learning their language and shouldn’t they be learning our language instead?
If you do spend time with them, you will definitely understand them better. I do spend about 2 hours a day with Miko. I will talk to her by asking how she spends her day; showing my love and concern by massaging, playing or walking her around the neighborhood. She will have her “bed time story”; training before going to bed.
I have learnt to know her better from our daily connection. I know her timing for toilet and her restless face will tell me she is tired after a long day and she will sleep before me. Share with them more of your time and not regret one day.
Heard about the new on the student kicking and hitting the teacher? I got an inside news from a friend who is teaching in that school. The girl is a normal secondary 2 student, who need attention. She is not mad but need special attention. She used to stand on chair and “meow” to get attention from friends and teacher. There are instructions from the principal to ignore and leave that girl alone. Will it worsen when we leave them alone?
Is it really that difficult to educate a child compare from our days? We get cane when we do something wrong but I don’t think now the parent know when the kid are in the wrong. Teacher can no longer cane the kid unless it is public caning for serious mistake. Is it the children or parents’ fault? Coming back to the time issue! This could be the price and cost of fighting for every dollar in exchange for a stressful life.
