Just woke up, went for a nap earlier when the reno around my estate stopped for lunch. Didn't sleep well last night and I still can feel my eyes swollen, haha..
ahnetsan, sky in the west and central is very dark too. I think it's raining almost whole of sg?
TubbyMummy, my mum asked his opinion. He said he wanted a change of school. Whenever my mum tried to get him to do his homework, he would sit there and cry. Even the staff in reading programme (those basic phonic support programme), he would also refuse to bring the homework back and insist of keeping at my mum's place.
Frankly speaking, I have never met the principal before. The school knew his problem, he was a transferred student cause I moved place after I got divorced. The previous school was so anxious to get him out that they actually find school for me, wrote everything for me and all I need to do is pass it to the new school. Guess majority of the schools look at grades ar?
BlueDream, since from day 1 I never compare him with anyone, not even with his sister. I know he is a special child with special needs so I lower my expectation in terms of school grades.
thanks bing.
lovelytulips, i understand what you mean. =)
diaper rash, I am not sure if it's useful or not. Both of my kids never had rashes. Really necessary to get it?
Cassey, thanks. Sometimes just felt so lost and have no idea where to get help. When I first told of my son's problem, no1 actually tell me what's happening and what's to do. I was like going around aimlessly, trying any methods friends and colleagues suggested to find out how I can help him.
during pri 1, he had a IQ assessment from MOE EP and he suggested me to put him into a school with low IQ, the school which only teaches him basic living and nothing else. I had my doubts then. He was never a stupid boy to me, in fact he's a clever boy. He could remember the route to a place if you bring him there once or twice. He takes MRT himself at 7 from redhill to clementi, knowing his way to my mum's.
At that time, I didn't put him in not because of unable to accept who he is but i wanted to make sure that is the right place for him, i do not want to see him being put somewhere just because of 1 test done for him.
I believe he is simple and ADD boy. Has never seen him being too active. It does affect him even when he does homework right? Practically I am doing his homework for him now, asking him to copy what I wrote for him in a piece of paper but even copying can take him hours and days to finish it as he always daydream while sitting there writing.
KKH had been seeing him since last year when I managed to "force" the school to write me a letter. I will be meeting the lady from rehabilitation dept for discussion next mth. She told my mum the school MOE EP recommends for my son is not suitable for him.
createjoy, being a young mum has her pros and cons. Like me, I never went night gathering as most of my friends are young and nothing to chat about. They talked about shopping, bfs, sales while I only have kids to talk about. And also got to bring them along wherever I go as my parents are working.
I went once or twice for counselling a few years ago when my marriage on the rocks cause went into depression. But didn't went back after that. Bringing 2 kids along, making sure they are not tearing down the place and got to coax to stay awhile more when they got tired of there. -.-
Ya, was hoping to find some parents with same problems but it's quite hard initially when nobody tells you what is wrong with your kid.
She has been very sweet to me ever since she knows there's a baby inside me. She would hug my tummy everyday she comes home from childcare, saying good morning & good nite to her little brother and also scold him when she knows he kicked me.
thank you Mika Rei. Glad that i talked it out. Was hesitating for quite some time whether to type them out.
donating cord blood, i don't mind but no one discuss with me yet. Or am I supposed to call up and tell them I interested to do so?
