Helping Parents Succeed
By Abel Cheng
Do you impose views on your child?
There are still parents who directly or indirectly influence the future of their child. I know many Asian parents used to do that even though the number is dropping now.
Without considering the talents and interests of a child, the parents are quick enough to lead the child into a profession, such as medicine, law, or accounts, just to name a few.

I understand that the show was first screened in 2004. It takes 6 years to reach our shores. The program is now screened on NTV7 at 8.30pm every Monday since yesterday.
Though it is an old TV program by today’s standard, the lessons in this parenting show are timeless. We can still learn to be better parents from watching this show despite its age.
Also Nanny 911 is a reality show. Before you shun away and say, “Not another reality show!” please listen to me first.

We just got back from my village town yesterday for Chinese New Year celebration. We were there for 6 days.
It is a tradition for us to get together with family members and friends during this festive season.
Children must be actively encouraged to feel good about themselves if they are to lead fruitful and satisfying lives

I have recently learnt a very important thing about myself – I am very task orientated. I love interacting with my children, but I am not too good on free play and just hanging out. I benefit from a little structure and play with a focus. I don’t mind if the game goes off on a tangent, but I do need that little bit of structure to feel really relaxed with my children.
