Wow. Timing of this question i-To The Moon - Tiger Brokers Online Investing Community - To The Moon

Wow. Timing of this question is great. Singapore recently completed phase 2c of primary school entry.
Many parents place extraordinary focus on making sure that their children enter into top schools. They shift homes by buying million dollar properties. By volunteering in schools and communities just to let their kids have that little bit of edge into entering a top school.

Excessive and crazy? There are many who believe that pushing their children hard will give them that edge in life to do well in future. These are the so called tiger mums.

I am honestly a failure of sg education system, I score poorly in school, nearly kicked out of university. Whereas my wife was a top student, who score As. Guess who is doing better now. [Cool]

I believe in letting my child grow and find her interests and passions. Let her find her own path. To support her, I have to work even harder and drive myself to new heights, so that I can create a safety net for her to learn, fail and grow.
