Last night(Sat), he called me over phone to ask permission to play.
I told him NO because he had already been given time on Friday. He keep saying he has no homework, everything is done etc, but i insist he do some work . As usual, raise his voice and behave in a rude manner.
Finally he give up. End of the night, he showed me his biology paper. Understand that the homework was given to him during tuition time (just that afternoon)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
He can insist that he doesnt have homework when it was given just in the afternoon ?
What does this tell about how organise he is ?
So much protest about doing homework assigned. Do you think he will do more , read ahead, mindmap etc of his own accord ?
If we reverse role, will he trust someone who behaves in such a manner ?
Should he blame his parents for being naggy ?
Does he think we really have nothing better to do than to nag at him ?

Last sight of his grandmother
His grandmother was passing away..
We just miss her by a split second for a variety of reason. I was told that his grandmother was waiting to get a glimpse of her before leaving. Imagine letting a dying old woman waiting for us, enduring the pain whilst waiting....
lesson :
In life, you never know when you are missing something important which you might regret your whole life..
You need not stress yourself unncessarily, but for important things, there is a need to have a sense of urgency, to be punctual.

Using Chopsticks - picking his grandmother bones
Can see that he has difficulty using chopsticks whilst all are watching.
Had asked him to learn before , but he simply ignore saying that he is fine without having to learn about it..
Guess this is life. You never know when you will be tested on a particular skill. Hence in life, you should learn as much as possible. Rather than be tested.
Dont want to nag him, but he should decide if he wants to continue this attitude in life or to have a learning attitude (ie keep learning),so that he will not be embarrass in future.
