Had an hour-long Whatsapp chat with the mother of one of Nadya's classmates.
We lamented and also wondered if we were slacker parents. Because other parents were sending their kids to enrichment classes left, right and centre. I recently found out that another of Nadya's classmates is attending Chinese and ballet on Saturdays, and English and Math classes on Sundays.
And our kids were playing masak masak at home or hanging out in malls.
On one hand, I feel we need not tax the kids so early...On the other hand, I'm scared Nadya will start lagging behind.
How like that? ...... :(
Nevermind....I shall mull over it abit more....
First up, swim classes for her....this is a life skill she should have.
I hope she is interested in music classes too...Academic classes...maybe in the next 1-2years?
I didn't have such stuff when I was young. No enrichment and only Chinese tuition simply because my parents were hopeless in Mandarin. Sigh...we all still ended up ok right?
Hmm.....Has the climate changed so much in 30 years?
