答非所问

since both of them take school bus to school, we hardly goes to school or met up with teachers. the only meeting we had will be the parent-teacher meeting every end term.

 

i received a call from teacher with regards to yu ze's 'problem - 答非所问' and can't hold a conversation. she wants us to help reinforce it at home.

 

some examples given are:

teacher: yu ze, what letter is this? (a)

yu ze: i want to eat apple.

 

teacher is discussing about food/other things with class and ask questions. yu ze will answer non-related answer or talk about trains/planes.

 

teacher trying to hold a conversation with yu ze on a topic. after a sentence or two, he will go out of point and talk about any other things but mainly on his thomas and train tracks.

 

sigh.... how to guide him in this?

new uniform

a brand new year and a brand new day for yu ze. he is in nursery this year and needs to start wearing proper uniform (like primary school type, not t-shirt and shorts).

 

i took out the uniform for him to change, he refuse to wear them to school. he says that one (uniform) cannot, will drop. i packed his uniform in his bag and inform his teacher to change for him and 'educate' him. he went to school in his usual t-shirt and shorts set.

 

after dinner, i pick up another set of this uniform to show him.

me: yu ze, you got wear this today?
yu ze: finished already (means he wore the uniform). mummy, i got new school. must wear this one.
me: no, not new school. its new uniform.
yu ze: no, new school....
me: you want to wear this tomorrow?
yu ze: yes.

the day after, he needs to t-shirt and shorts uniform. how? hope he won't argue with me every morning over which set of uniform to wear.

again....

yu xi cries again this morning when we reach school but its not cos of school. she cries cos yu ze don't want to hold her hand. she extends her hand for gor gor's to hold, gor gor refused. at the moment, gor gor is her security but her security is rejecting her. hahaha…… 

 

how she is going to handle it when gor gor is going back to his class and she is going to stay alone in her class.

darling feel so sad for mei mei cos gor gor don't want hold her hand.

5th day in school

when i told yu xi that we are going to school, she went to pull papa and say she wants to go sleep sleep. went to bed to pretend to sleep, so i change her on the bed. when we are all ready to leave, i call out, let's go. she appears and say go. when we reach school, she wants papa to carry thinking she can escape. i carry her over to measure temp, check hand and she walk back to class whinning cos yu ze refuse to hold her hand. starts crying when the classroom door but still say bye bye to me and walks towards her teacher.

4th day of school

yu xi cries super badly today. hold on to darling tightly and refuse to let go. i have to 'snatch' her over and hand over to her teacher. darling is so heart break to see her girl cry like that.

reality sets in

reality sets in today. yu xi realise she has to go school daily. she crys when i drop her off and say don't want school. she holds my hand and walked towards the class together. she started crying again once the classroom door open. 

too bad, my girl. you have to go school no matter what. you can’t get away from this. :P

2nd day of school

yu xi 2nd day in school. she didn't resist when we reach, i told her to kiss me goodbye and she did. also told her to take school bus with gor gor later and mommy wait for her at home.

turn and told yu ze to bring mei mei take school bus with him and mommy wait for them at home. yu ze super teh bao and started crying, he always resist school during school holiday or when i send him to school. i told him to stop and i don’t like to see him cry.

hopefully, yu xi can settle down well. she is going to be there for the whole day. 

 

as promised i waited for them at the bus stop, i asked the school bus auntie if she cried. thank god, she didn’t if not the whole bus will be filled with her loud cries.
