nothign wrong with them, they weren't even interested in the work anyway. its the stupid system thats the problem needing the parents to do free work for the schools and pap for the children to get into schoolsOriginally posted by av98m:A lot of kiasu parents do grassroots work to get their children into the popular schools, then stop once their kids are in.
Originally posted by gigabyte14:kids in neighbourhood schools tend to mix better
whereas kids in so called "famous" schools are more known to have a negative personality
maybe the people there are snobbish?

that's why i'd say i have not much confidence in singapore's futureOriginally posted by the Bear:it is because they never go early enough.. all the places taken already by parents who do 'volunteer work' since the child is 2..
and primary school teachers have it the toughest.. the brats are totally indisciplined because of parents who don't know the first thing about responsibility and parenting.. half the time is spent trying to keep order in the class..
i know.. i saw much of this firsthand in my life...
Originally posted by elindra:I wonder why they call having children 'investing in the future' when you look at the world and there really isn't much future to talk about (environmental, political, competition etc etc)

what's going to happen in singapore?
passing the baton to them in the near future, is it worth it?
how do we solve this?
it all depends on the parents now

A lot of kids in the so-called top schools are damned atas one. Speak with funny accents and nose always in the air. I see a lot of this.Originally posted by elindra:
Tell me about it
When my cousin found out her daugther (my niece) refused to mix with Indians
She transferred her out of the school immediately to a neighbourhood school in Serangoon
She was like no racisim sentiments allowed to breed at such a young age
I applaud her really coz how many parents will actually do that!

no more crippler crossface.
sibeh sad. they are all going away when wrestling is starting to get boring.
TNA looks not bad though. it like old school WWF.
influence from peers is a great thingOriginally posted by the Bear:no.. it does not 'depend on the parents'
it depends on every single one of us...
take the personal responsibility for our own lives and to influence those around us
because the moves they use looks vintage WWF.Originally posted by the Bear:TNA.. in Slammiversary 2007, how's this for a blast from the past?
Rick Steiner and Road Warrior Animal vs Team 3-D
Animal was stand-in because Steroid Scott Steiner hurt himself..
