I agree... and you cannot measure what you are doing for your child right now. I don't think my parents did. According to my father, he was doing what grandma did. My grandma was illiterate, and she lined up outside La Salle cuz she saw parents lining up and it must be a good school. My dad got in for P.6 then. Better life for the family when my dad graduated F.7; although there was not enough money for him to go to uni in Canada (which he was accepted for medical school). He cried over it and kept the acceptance letter in his safe till NOW!
My parents did what they did because they wanted a better life for me (now I am 30+ and understands!) But when I was sent to boarding school in UK, seeing friends going out with their parents during the weekend and all I had was talking to my parents for 10 minutes a week, was heartbreaking!
No with my own son, I see what it is. We, as modern parents, can only do what we think is best for them, as of this moment... as much as we can afford. My parents put me in a position where I am lucky to not worry about finances to send my son to IS. I am also luckier than some of you, my mother-in-law doesn't understand a thing about what my son says (english of course) and doesn't complain! My husband, after school visits, have decided that he doesn't like local education systems. I still have my worries, I worry about which IS to send my son to. Let's face it... we parents are greedy... but just for the better!
