no problem, i think it's sad when kids have so much pressure put on them, especially these days when the future of the workforce and income generation looks very different.

as long as we remember there is always a path and a way and help kids explore their interests, there will be hope :)

What things did you have to unlearn?

Really nice to read! Thanks for sharing so much about yourself. As a school teacher, I actually agree with you. Our grades only show that we have mastered well the curriculum content, but it mayn’t indicate our ability to hold a decent conversation outside the confines of the syllabus. That’s why I always confidently tell my experienced parent friends that I am very confident I will be a chill parent and not get stressed over the pressure cooker that is our education system. It’s more important to inculcate the intrinsic motivation to learn in my kids, just like what you did for yourself
