Dear Ipeng,

Thank you for your reply and information. In fact, I've enrolled my daughter in April at her age of 3. Is a bit young to enrol her but I've no choice cause no one is able to help me to take care of her. I've enrolled her for day care as well. You are right, sometime I'm really not sure whether I've made a correct decision. After she started 2months with Brainchild, I only see the improvement on her art and speech but not so much on the discipline side and in fact she is worst in term on her behaviour and emotional.

I was wondering why. Whenever, I asked the day care teacher there..they comment she is good and obedient...sigh. Anyway, we are going to have teacher parent meeting day on Sat 11/6 and hopefully I can work out something with teacher.

Based on my observation, I've no doubt on their morning session but ? on their day care service. 

I know teacher Joyce and she seems very experience there. My girl is in 3 Love 1 with teacher Victoria.

You are right, I'm in dilemma stage at this moment. Like you said, we should communicate more with the teachers to make things happen. She is my only daughter, probably because of that she glue to us a lot and very demanding. So, we need the professional like teacher to assist us to educate our child.

Once again, thanks for your kind advice and you are such kind & perfect mom. I am a very aggressive mom and get angry easily..lack of patience which I'm learning to be more patience. My daughter got all my bad tempered :-(

Till then, nice chatting with you and I hope to learn more from you to be a good mom.

Thank you

Mrs Kok

Dear Mrs Kok,

Don't worry so much ya. My daughter was the same during her 3 Love 1 with Teacher Victoria. She got my bad tempered too. :-( She can't really speak well and all the teachers hardly understand what she is trying to say. Me as her mum too. Most of the time, i had to check with Issac what his sister was trying to tell me, as both of them 'communicate' a lot and Issac understand her 'baby talk'. And, Teacher Victoria and Teacher Joyce advised us give a lot of encouragements or compliments to her.

I think during my daughter at her 3 years old, she wanted to be listen and treated the same like an adult or like her big brother. She wants to be listened, I guessed. That is why she is manja all the time, and make sure that parents pay the attention to her. I guessed that was the case and even now too. She got her own character compared with her brother. When she insisted, that is the things she wants. Teacher Joyce did tell us that, if we talk to her nicely, explains to her, even though she didn't change her face expressions, but her ears is listening. Sometimes, we would be surprise that she will remember and repeat the same things we said months ago.

Well, this coming Teachers Parents Meeting, we will discuss with both kids teachers and see what is the improvements that we can do. Actually, compared with last year, I can see Issac's improvements on his academic side because he 'click' with his Teacher Law very well, and we did highlight to her last year. Especially the afternoon day care session, the homework revision session.

I try not to emphasis on the academic so much, but emphasis on his enthusiasm to learning. But i do not know how 'far' can i let go.. I am not a good mum too, sometimes my temper just goes off like that. We learn from each other, even from our kids.

Happy Parenting.
