为什么要上学？

Thursday, 28th July 2011
前两天晚上九点才离开姐姐家，见到她家邻居就和她聊了几句。她孩子一个刚从补习班回来，一个还在学校。怎么搞的，才念小学就得从早读到晚？那样读书几乎都很辛苦。。。。

路上，我问哲宇，人为什么一定要读书？

他误会了我的意思，回答我说：
「那是自己喜欢，你爱读书，就读书。」（他的意思是阅读书本）

我改口说，人为什么要上学？

「不上学，头脑会变笨的。」
「上学也不是每个人都变得厉害呀？」
「那是因为有的人吸收能力比较慢，那更应该上学，不然不是更加追不上？」
「说的也对!」

子不学，非所宜。幼不学，老何为？

上学也好读书也好，本来就有压力。
功课压力、考试压力、补习压力；
学校老师给的压力、音乐老师给的压力、绘画老师给的压力；
再加上父母给的压力，简直就让人头不过气，更何况是个小孩呢！！
于心何忍啊？？？

所以，时时刻刻提醒自己，不要再给孩子“不必要”的压力。
「读书快乐；快乐读书」、「童年快乐；快乐童年」。。。。

注：橙色是哲宇的最爱，就用它来代表他的发言。

Hi fellow friends, long time no "see"... I am back again after 7 months break. I have nothing to share about bento but some parenting story with you, hope these life minutiae between me and my boy won't make you feel bore.

Although I don't fix bento, but my desire to own bento tools still go on, especially those cute picks. Few months back, I bought myself my very 1st bento book, by Hippomum and I believe many of you might already have a copy of it. Why I need bento book since I no longer prepare bento? Well, I just wish one day or maybe some special occasion, I will fix a bento for someone special? kekekek....

My subsequent posts will be written in Mandarin, apologize if you can't read it because I can only express my feeling well in Mandarin. I do consider to translate it to English, but... it's too tedious for me and probably after translated, it doesn't bring out the "FEEL".....
