discipline or not - thats the question



She received a letter from her 7-old daughter, meng's teacher, telling her meng failed all subjects in school.And she needed to talk to her. She got a cringe, fearing they may kick her out of the school.

Her sister told her,"maybe meng has dyslexia, she cannot concentrate with her study. When I teach her, she gets bored very fast."

The brother in law said. " Kids are like that study is a chore that's like taking bitter pill. They don't like study. So the parents have to device a routine for them, make study part of it. Discipline them to go thru it. The mantra is, routine, discipline and affection, not the other way round."

She didn't reprimand her daughter, for she thot she's too young to understand the significance of it. And for her, discipline is the last thing she would do it to her kids.

she talked to the teacher, and got her transferred out to another lower-std class.
