如何培養「弱智」女兒入世界名校

你又講嚟聽吓啦。

我之前講過，而家後生大學畢業揾工難過我哋個陣好多。話說阿女暑假番嚟，雖然無意畢業番香港做嘢(佢多數繼續讀上去) ，但亦都貪玩報啲工試吓。亳無例外，份份工都要aptitude test先。有啲重有網上練習卷俾應徵者試到得先嚟真嘅。據聞有啲工要aptitude test既verbal同reasoning啱晒先可以到下一關。有日阿女喺度做緊網上嘅練習，同我講：「老豆，你又話你後生時GMAT七百幾分，過嚟幫手研究吓。」心想，雖然好耐冇做呢啲嘢，但無理由唔掂啫，就走埋去。點知，咁就中伏啦。我冇一條題目快過佢，而且如果答案同佢唔同，佢都可以即刻講俾我聽我錯係邊。阿女之後同我講，「阿媽話你退化咗係無錯嘅，如果你宜家去應徵是但一份要apt test嘅工都無可能得。You’ve become totally unemployable.」老婆乘機喺側跟起哄：「係呀，條友仔真係退化咗好多，早兩日先猛問我『附和』個『附』字點寫，我係都唔講俾佢聽。」我本想回敬番一句：「你自己都唔記得就真。」但回心一諗：阿女都話我totally unemployable咯，我宜家睇白要靠老婆養過世啦，激嬲佢，搞到老婆攞番佢俾我嗰個自動增值銀包咪大劑，咁就忍着口，冇駁咀。講起老婆送嘅呢個自動增值銀包真係好神奇，無論洗剩幾多，第二朝打開又有番幾百蚊係度，加埋張自動增值八達通就天下無敵。不過老婆話我頭腦簡單，銀行咭都唔好放，費事我撞到祈福黨。

我諗一方面係我退化，另一方面，我哋可以睇到就算我數學十一二年前叻過阿女多多聲，一個唔進步，另一個年年進步啲，一定會過頭。俾子女專心發展自己特長，比担心佢聰唔聰明緊要得多，笨鳥先飛，比別人多花時間就是。

先排ANChan贈Annie40嗰番莊子嘅說話後面有幾句係庖丁講自己如何成為刀神：「臣之刀十九年矣，所解數千牛矣」，亦即網友Andyny2014轉載林行止所講嘅「專注」及「一勤天下無難事」。子女鈍鈍地，就咪搞咁多花樣，專注一兩樣，三年五載必有所成。

唉，我個細既就係偏偏逢玩的都啱，但又不願刻苦，無耐。

至於 App test，你講笑啫。Fresh grad 要唔出奇，呀 Sir 你不用。Totally employable.

真的很希望"小一選校"那邊的家長看到 "雖然嬴了起跑線未必一定會贏，但是輸了起步，無論將來如何努力，贏極都有限！" 的同時，也能看到樓主和LittleRoxie的分享！
不如你地搬過去啦！
謝謝你們的分享！

多謝支持我今日先同我的粗心大意疑似智障的女兒說,初小成績不是太重要,將來無人會睇,初小要建立的 ...

認同.初小要建立的是學習態度及專注認真. 而不是求分數求名次.
我要時刻緊記這一點.

太多新鮮大學生供應，除左睇果間係咪名牌，HR咪畀D test 撚下佢地來揀.

呢個勤字最難為。

不過，我咁大個人，未見過有錢的(負担得起送孩子出國的)不能升讀大學課程。我認為要送子女入世界名校，宜两管齐下：

1. 好像老人家做法，勤勤力力，持之以恆教育仔女。
2. 勤力掙錢。

雙勤齐下，一定能升上大學。

Learning the experience of laorenjia and other parents here really gives me an insight to prepare (at least psychologically) for my young kid who's still in the junior primary school.  I will stay tuned for more sharing from you guys

For the aptitude test, I think it's too pathetic for job applicants to achieve full marks before being granted an interview.  Or perhaps there are too applicants to choose from.  Or is it kinda "management trainee" in big corporates that require their new recruits to go through such aptitude tests?  Any other kinds of job that will not require this (e.g. doctor, engineer, and other professionals)?

I'm too remote from this game, given my decades of work (same as laorenjia, I should be totally employable when put under this crazy interview game nowadays).  Hope someone out there to share their experience.

I'm not really convinced if one has to go to study overseas merely for a general degree (excuse me, I think management, business administration, etc belong to the so-called "general") unless the school is top-tiered, world renowned as for the case of laorenjia.  Otherwise, it would seem a waste of time and money (except the kid has already "hoi hiu" and knows what s/he is going to achieve).

I know a family whose kid went to the US after finishing F.4 in HK (not a top student at that time) for a reason to broaden her horizon.  She studied in a public school (through the program that had been advertised in the local press and the cost is something like HK$100,000 a year, not really expensive).  Then the kid entered an ordinary community college but was fascinated by the wide spectrum of subjects that one would never find in Hong Kong.  Under this environment, the kid made up her mind in pursuing something she finds an interest and has worked hard through the years.  Months ago, she was offered a PhD scholarship by CUHK and will come back for a new chapter of life later this year.  She's now 21 and her parents have never been like "monsters" in her bring-up, but maintained good relationship and provided spiritual support all along (as what most of us do).  I think it is important for the kids to "hoi hiu" so that they can plan for their own life, a purpose-driven life.  If they don't take ownership of their future, they will never succeed in life.

本人到初中時也是智障,讀band2中學也滿江紅,無心向學,操行差,被學校勸退.最後也能在世界排名一線大學畢業. ...

你呢D個案我成日覺得本身係有潛質讀到書只係唔開竅. 如果你本身係無資質你又唔會由虫變龍喎..

回復 jojoplanet 的帖子

agree, 同一個家庭兩兄弟, 一個讀到博士, 一個緊緊讀到中五畢業. 資質都好重要.
