Weekend tuition

My usual Saturday rush between tuition center and other curriculum for the kids.  Though it is tiring, I always look forward to hear from the kids about the fun they had in classes.  I was at United Square and believe most of the parent spent at least half a day in that building.  Since the renovation of the food court, it seems to have forced parents to explore new hang out places within the building.  Maybe there is a good business opportunity to allow parents to attend free parenting seminars or some personal development seminars while paying for drinks and cakes.  I was also wondering if herbal tea place would work out in this building.

Tuition for kids have been talking points over the last few weeks.  It is a lucrative business and a number of tutors shared about their earning on the last Sunday paper.  Different family send their kids to tuition for different reasons.  I send my kids to tuition to learn other tuition center learning value and expand their networking circle in the early childhood.  The kids today are well exposed with technology from SMS, Blog to facebook or other social networking tools.  I believe in teaching the kids to fish and they will have a life skill to fish for themselves.  I am happy to see the 3 of them progressing and taking initiative to learn new skill.  

Daryl commented yesterday on learning how to troubleshoot PC or IT problems at home.  He hope to be a IT support manager in our neighborhood.  I am satisfied with his eagerness to learn and openness to share with my wife and I.  I hope his open communication to us remain unchanged when he is in his teen.  I heard so many horrified stories on the limited conversation parents have with teenage kids.  Meanwhile, I can only hope and treasure the moment of his openness in communicating with us.

It's time to end my blog with the 3 things that made me smile today:

1) Jerry read the CD song title using phonics

2) Daryl read newspaper on the latest SamSung product on Galaxy tablet and share his view of the similarity with iPaq

3) Nicole kissed me volunteering when I commented about the tiredness from the driving today
