was just pondering about certain issues and i have decided to "pen" it down....it's how funny that some parents are willing to spend so much money getting their kids to learn something which they don't really love... due to this, kids would just learn the skill for the sake of learning...not thinking of improving on how they can attain the skill, and because of this, excuses will start pouring in, for example:Commencement of the lesson:Teacher: alright, can i take a look at your homework?Student: oh sorry teacher, i lost the homework that you had given it to me, i think my mum lost it.it's how amazing that kids who do not want to do their homework can just push the blame to their mum, very convenient. However, when the class ends, this is what happens.Ending of lesson:Teacher: ok, so please remember to practise, see youStudent: (and suddenly out of the blue) oh teacher, i found my homework you had given me last week.Aren't kids very smart these days? Their tricks are just too good to be true. And this often leads me to wonder where on earth is the interest to learn the skill at all? And of course i must say, this is pretty sad.
