I dislike it when some parents telling you how to live your life or telling you how to raise you kids. All these are nonsense and rubbish. And the worst thing is, they really stressing out their method on raising up their kids.
Maybe I'm young, but what do you know about raising up kids at my level?
I'm not married yet. I dont have a kids. But I have a younger brother. I do treat him like my son. I gave him everything I could. I even starting an education fund for him. The best gift a parents can give their children is education. But then again, what do I know about parenting?
Last month, my brother attended church camp for 4 days 3 nights. Our house was so quiet. I wanted to call him. Thinking to ask how was the food over there, the blanket, the condition and yada yada. Then I realize, when I attended church camp few years back, I wanted to relax. I wasnt hoping mum to call me up to check on my situation. Its annoying. But some parents, they did call up concerning about the food, the accommodation, the people you sleep with, and the list of worries goes on. I didnt make any calls to my brother. Because I simply know, this is the time for him to mix with new people. And I shall not interrupt it. But then again, what do I know about parenting?
Every exam season, I will offer a special 'incentive' for if he scores good grades. The 'incentive' are simple. The more A's you get, the more lucrative the incentive will be. The incentive made must be agree by both parties. In this case, me as the offeror, he as the offeree. And there must be an acceptance. Let me tell you the reason why I do in a a 'negotiation' way instead of the " okay, you get 10 A's, I give you RM200". No. My incentives are negotiable because it will arise from his attention and interest in such way. He will be accountable for what he has said and if he didnt achieve it, at least you know, the 'incentive' could be consider void. So far, Andy has been a good boy and showing good results. But then again, what do I know about parenting?
