dyslexia?

我開玩笑地對女兒說，你快要成為英雄了。正在織圍巾的女兒，歪著頭想了想，認真地告訴我說，老師曾講過一句格言：當英雄路過的時候，總要有人坐在路邊鼓掌。她輕輕地說：'媽媽，我不想成為英雄，我想成為坐在路邊鼓掌的人。那一刻，我忽然被這個不想成為英雄的女孩打動了。這世間，有多少人，年少時渴望成為英雄，最終卻成了煙火紅塵裏的平凡人。如果健康，如果快樂，如果，沒有違背自己的心意，我們的孩子，又何妨做一個善良的普通人。長大成人後，她一定會成為：賢淑的妻子，溫柔的母親，甚至，熱心的同事，和善的鄰居。在那些漫長的歲月裏，她都能安然地過著自己想要的生活。作為父母，還想為孩子祈求怎樣更好的未來呢？

My eyes are still wet about this - 媽媽，我不想成為英雄，我想成為坐在路邊鼓掌的人

yes, why we need to force our children to be someone at the top when they just want to be a happy and kind ordinary persons? "you cant even write your name, what else u want to this when u grow up?" "ok, no milk for u tonite" :~~ Thinking of how laogong taught royee writing alphabet N last night, how laogong lost his patience, and how royee feeling suffered. I don’t want to interrupt them, but I feel hurt. Looking at royee’s half yearly report card, he is good at all levels, except holding pen to write. Maybe, this is so called dyslexia - Handwriting Dysgraphia. Been reading about this topic, royee is having most of the mentioned symptoms, but it is still early to confirm. Wait till age 5. As what the teacher mentioned, we need to give royee time. be more patience. I hope laogong don’t push royee, let royee follow his own rhythm and tempo for this learning stage. We just need to give him time n love. As we know, Thomas Edison also had learning difficulty when he was small. But he lights up the world!

Zhugong, as I told u this morning, royee is good in speech and memory. Doesn’t mean we need to have good writing skill to be a successful and good person. So pls don’t force him anymore, when I think of how royee dropping his tears last nite, my heart is feeling hurt. Lets company the boy in his learning path. As parents, we shouldn’t give up children homework, or else, who is going to guide them and care about their feeling? zhugong, hope you understand this and take royee’s feeling into consideration. To be no.1 is parents expectation, it might not be the boy’s target. Don’t let our expectation suffers the children. how I wish, I have more time to n walk together with our children in their journey. How I wish I could stop working in the office..
