Commenting on “Mandarin-speaking parents get word”
http://www.monashweekly.com.au/article.aspx?id=2129975
What about the English speaking parents? Many of them need more than 10 hours of parenting lessons.
Language skill is neither the problem nor the solution. Parents don't spend enough time with the children, and their respective life styles are so different, and they don't want to know each other's activities.
The bondage is not there, whether at dinner time, or weekend BBQ. The parents make excuses that they don't know their children's school work,- who knows, unless they take some interest to learn about the subject.
Start "connecting" with the children NOW, before they leave you for good!
