"Freedom to live and to think about life for its own sake is important and even essential to a child. Since we can't know what knowledge will be most needed in the future, it is senseless to try to teach it in advance. Instead, we should try to turn out people who love learning so much and learn so well that they will be able to learn whatever needs to be learned." -John Holt.

Souvenir from Penang 12 June 2010.
A Flag. Two chinese zodiac teacups @ RM5.90 each. An old postcard that Hui picked ! ! *why oh why?*
Hui broke the monkey teacup the very next Tuesday morning! *oh!*
While En was crying, I said 'yes, you were sad. You wish the teacup is intact'. It went on and on.. she cried and I repeated the similar expression. I drew a teacup and cut it out as a temporary cup before we find the replacement. ( It didn't work, my teacup art ended in the trash bin! LOL) So, again I said 'Yes, you very sad'. Hugged her. Then, in less than 10 minutes later, she stopped and was back to her usual self.
On Wednesday morning, I heard En said " Hui, do you want to wake up? Play with me. " (Hui was still zzzz ) When she saw the broken cup, she simply commented "Mmyyy broken teacup".
Amazing! Children forgives easily. And at what point that they change and become resentful like ugly adults ?
