There is some drama performance coming up in school, and one day, this friend of mine received a call from one of the... Erm... More "concerned" parent. Apparently, what this "very concerned parent" want was to ask the teacher to let her daughter to be the lead and in the limelight, and guess what was the reason given?
"If you don't let my child to be the lead, she will be fidgeting and I cannot guarantee to you what she would do in the midst of the show!"
W-O-W!
WHAT A THREAT!?
I don't find it intimidating, to me, this is more like a JOKE!
Why?
Hahahahaha....
This parent had just made herself a joke!
When you can't even teach your kid to behave at the proper moment, what makes you think that she will behave when she is made to go under the limelight?
I can, definitely understand how every parent want their kid to be in THAT special place to take the lead, how they consider their own child to be the most distinctive "lovely" fellow.
BUT... Reality is always CRUEL. Before you assume that your child can, it is more practical to consider the reality, whether your child can really take up that big responsibility. If you don't teach your own child, how do you expect others to teach for you?
Outcome?
Hiak hiak hiak...
