Fair is Foul and Foul is Fair

Every time I asked this boy (P6) solution to problem like the manila hostage, he would say "I'll kill that man." I said, "You know you won't." He said, "I can." "I know you can, but in reality you won't." I asked him if he didn't like to think about the problem or he played too much video game. He said no. "I'm sure there're other solutions that are better than this one. Why do you keep saying this?" He said "Because I am very angry." A little boy holding a lot of anger towards unfair incidents and he could only use emotion to lead his reaction. What on earth have the adults done to him? What on earth have we taught the young people that they can only use voilence to express anger?

Antiquated Education Scheme 陳舊的教育態度

Hong Kong's education is an antique. It cultures fear-to-loose minds (and suppresses creativity). Everything becomes competition. Kids participate so many extracurriculars they don't have time to be curious. They have endless homework and no time for respect.

I asked my high school English teacher in Canada, "What is education?"

"Education is to better oneself," he said.

(In Hong Kong) How? By not letting our kids choose the subjects they like? By cramming them into one big class? By struggling between using English or Chinese to teach? By highlighting things they fail? By making female teachers wear skirts? By giving many assessments to rank and label students? In what way have we made our children better? Well, they're very good at doing what the teachers say.

讓子女來討債？

不要剝奪子女生存本能發展的權利。讓孩子明白何解會有，何解會冇。讓他們理解有賞罰，自己思考怎樣權衡輕重。

<<怪獸家長>> ： 一分都不能少
學生 A 因己完成試卷而被老師浱去通傳其他班試卷題目有錯。學生 A 多次拒絕後，終於還是去了。回來後覺其中一條字體不太整齊，於是擦掉，卻 times up 無法再寫。家長代投訴為何找他們的孩子去通傳。

Charles J. Sykes 的 <<50 Rules Kids Won't Learn in School>> 中第一條就是：Life is not fair. Get used to it.

作為社會的一份子，應該有互助的精神。作為一個學生，亦應該培養這份精神。倒過來，其他班學生來通傳的話，學生 A 與他的家長亦會忿忿不平地為他討回那一分鐘時間嗎？阿旦訪問張學友，學友說：「別的孩子不可以而自己的孩子就可以為之寵。」學生 A 之所以失分並非因為代老師通傳，而是他沒有衡量字體整齊不整齊是否重要。連問題關鍵也找不出來，以後怎樣處理問題？難道一切都推到別人身上算了？

<<怪獸家長>> ： 未讀萬卷書，已行萬里路

(如果跟學生 A 的家長去，不曉得學了些是麼來。)

孩子問：點解我冇無得去旅行？

<<50 Rules Kids Won't Learn in School>> 第 4 條：You are not entitled to ...

孩子今日的生活是父母辛苦經營得來的，不是天掉下來的。憑甚麼有得去？

無家教 (1)

今日在荃灣上完堂到 A1 Bakery 餐廳用餐，看見一班二班人的所作所為，真看不過眼！

第一班，兩個師奶，一個小孩再一個 BB，坐三張枱 (二人式的) 八張櫈！BB 都不耐煩，不停尖叫。小女孩又搖櫈，又不停指住自已弄髒的地說「髒了！髒了！髒了！」

第二班，十幾人都吃完喝完還在等兩個人。這兩個人終於在二十分鐘後出現。十幾人亦等他倆點菜吃完才離開。

這兩班人的供通點是「不顧他人」(inconsiderate)。

小孩不懂但大人為甚是麽也沒留意呢？因為大人也不懂！只要自己有的吃有位坐就可以了。餐廳排著長長的隊也不相干。外面下著雨也跟他們沒關係。藉口當然有一大堆：「我有付錢的」、「開門做生意就是這樣的啦」......還記得那些在大馬路躺著，妨礙別人做生意，還大大聲聲說「總有犧牲」。拿別人的辛勞充自己擋正義英雄，這是誰培養出來的態度？少不了這兩班成人呢！
