It's quite tiring to rush home every night to follow up on my kids' homework, dictation and all nitty-gritties. Sometimes, I feel so fed up when my kids do not co-operate with me.

我同大家一樣自己要返工, 回家又要跟功課, 每日無咩時間溫書, 我要求好低不用佢好高分, 只要合格已經ok,
但學校功課越來越多, 我都留意緊找上門補習,  希望幫佢改善最弱的英文, 但不會日日補因不想小朋友做功課有依賴, 其他盡量自己跟返, 不知是否對?

我的小朋友p1,平均每天都有5樣功課做,大約1星期有中,英各1次默書! 而他有的興趣班是學琴,晝班同圍棋!

可能以前幼稚園無咩功課做, 而家佢都知要做功課,不過做到一半就鬼剎咁,尤其係中文造句,中英文抄書.....要佢之後溫書就仲難,只可以同佢講唔溫到時默唔到就要做改正,佢先會溫,因改正又要每字寫幾次!!! 所以係溫書同做功課方面我都好煩惱!!!唔知用咩方法可以幫到大家....

至於興趣班, 就係學琴最頭痛, 我想佢有音樂調整心理,所以無好高要求佢幾時可以考琴....但老師比的五線譜功課同練琴又係唔多做.....而圍棋學到而家只係家中玩過一次.....

我好想知有咩方法可以平衡小朋友的學習同玩耍的時間, 因佢個心想玩多,而做功課好似比嘢佢做咁;我已好言相向, 我們大家在家中扮演的角色, 佢去返學學嘢-負責做功課溫書;我地返工為工作賺錢,買食物,用品比家庭開支, 仲要管理家庭......anyway,可能佢唔多明, 但佢大約會知係d咩!!

我唔想佢唔開心, 我亦都唔想自己成日好似酸梅乾; 我無要求佢成績過人,只係想佢做好自己的事; 我唔會請到私人補習, 我覺得要佢自己肯主動先係良策.....但可以點呢....

雖然只上了p1 兩個多月, 但唔可成日遊遊吓, 因小學老師唔同幼稚園, 亦唔可以希望小學老師好似照顧bb照顧小朋友, 咁樣佢唔會成長....

My daughter is P.1 also and has a lot of homeworks. She said that she is interested in playing piano but not practising. I think practising is a long and boring process for a kid. So I do not press her too hard and just encourage her. Actually, I don't want her to quit because it is good for her growth in long run (provided that she still has little bit interests).

You let your son drop and I think you better find another long term interest for him so that he will not only play electronic games in future.

My son learnt piano for 5 years but still he is in grade 2. It seems to be a shame but I let him go on without any interference and now he starts to have the interest in it.

馬媽媽,

How old is your daughter? My son is P1, I think it's too hard for him to learn Grade 2. Also, he finds no interested on piano, so I decided to stop it. I told him last night, he's so happy.....I think it will be better.

Hi, All parents,
Everyday, we are busy for the homework and dictation. We (adult & child)  must take a rest. Try our best la.

Hi-Mum

我都是同你一樣, 要上網, tv, or 食下宵夜去減下壓.

My daughter learns piano and ballet. I always ask her to choose one but she refuses. She does not keen on playing piano. In past, I was very angry. But now, I learn to be more relaxed. Just let her practise and then corrected by the piano teacher. It seems that she feels much better and has more interest in practising.

Her progress is not fast but OK la because her school homeworks are very heavy and demanding. I think that both ballet and piano are good hobbies for her, which are also good training. Maybe, she will not be a successful dancer or pianist but at least she has gained the benefits from the good hobbies.

Should I give up playing piano ? My son don't practice piano every day. A song repeated more than one month, even 2-month. He always makes me when I push him to practice, he still not do as I say. Kumon, also, do slowly, more than 1 hr.  

I go home at around 7pm, then he start to have dinner, do homeworks, kumon & piano practice. He has to sleep before 9:30, but always late at 10pm more.

No doubt summer is most relaxing. However, I think it is important to take a break on sundays. Study is important to a kid but that is not all.

Yes, agreed. Do you have any ways to release the pressure?

My way of releasing pressure isn't that healthy. After finished checking their homework, it's already like 11 pm. I will sit in front of the TV, think nothing but to let my brain rest a little. So, I usually go to bed around 2:00 am.

The real relaxing time is during long holidays. So, it's not the kids but I being most excited when summer holidays come.

Totally agreed, so I find a private tutor for my daughter. It is much better now.
