why is education only for youngsters? I find that it is imperative for adults to go through the stage of being educated. Especially when the world goes through a change, a paradigm shift. From being conservative to being liberal. Why do you think there's a generation gap between parents and their children, grandparents and their grandchildren? It is the very fact that they were educated in different times, different environment and with different facts.
what i mean by education is not just about knowing the method to solving mathematical sums or the art of being analytical about who ended the Cold War. But it's more about learning to understand the other generations. Educating, being raising awareness of the possibility of the youngsters having different expectations from you. Raising awareness about the objectives and purpose of activities that do not revolve around academic results. Why is it imperative and important for a student to have CCA now? What use does it give to the child? How a leadership position can benefit the child even if they become very busy with it.. How debate actually helps someone be more intelectual in some way or another.. But parents nowadays simply wish to see it as a process which leads their child off course to getting better grades. Getting home late at night when she could read more books and practice more math sums.
But at the end of the day, it's how she benefit from the activities matter most. and this, i observe that parents nowadays lack very much. they'd rahter u sit at home, be a frog in a well, dont open up ur social circle that much.
expectations of the perfect child: sleep, wake up, go to school, studystudystudy, go home, homework, extra practices, watch 30minutes of tv, read the book "YOUR FUTURE CAREER" , go to sleep, wake up, go to school, .......
i tell u, the perfect child wont be as perfect at the end of the day. he'd just be someone with super LOW EQ. High IQ but worthless junk in the society. whats the use. i really cant see it.
there should be a balance on how much you study and how much you practice skills that only takes experience to build.
im just too pissed to elaborate. but i guess ppl will understand. ppl who are in the same boat as me.
sometimes, parents dont understand failure too. saikang MUST LEAD TO SUCCESS. fallacious? precisely why im pissed. sometimes they have to understand that life can be a little unfair at times. thats why they had us in the first place.
