Son wants reward for good mark

He told me that he gets 80 marks for spelling. He asked if there's any reward for it. Yesterday I bumped into his classmate's mom and found out that her son is getting 100 mark for every spelling, that's because her hubby reward him RM100 for each 100 marks get. Ahhh.... I can't afford that.. if it happen to me.

Do you think it is good to reward children with money if they gets good result in exam/spelling?

What's on your mind?

One mom told me, it is one way her son is saving money to purchase his favourite toys.

Parenting Workshop @Empire Hotel Subang Jaya

I just find out there is a parenting workshop at Empire Hotel on 8 June 2013, it falls on Sat. It will be from 9am to 4.30pm. I can tell you that it is not free, you need to pay RM60 for a person. Children is not allow for entry.

There is goodie bag worth RM100 up for grab on the day of workshop and lucky draw too!

Oh well, I didn't take part this workshop even though my heart say yes. But my wallet says NO. :(

What's your mind telling you?

RM40 an hour tuition fee

I am not kidding here, now tuition fee for primary school cost so much now. My friend told me she has interest to give her son tuition at home. She told me most teachers asking for RM40 an hour, I dont know if they are school teacher or retired teacher but it is good money!

Imagine working at fast food an hour will cost maybe RM5 or RM6, but for tuition kids it is so nuch more. I dont think it is necessary to give them tuition at young age, perhaps if need just take one subject?

If you are mon or student, do you think primary school children need tuition? If yes, what subject is important?
