往伦敦的飞机上

坐在32K的机位上
突然
33L的妈妈带着很烂又很势利的英文口腔对33k的孩子说:
"You have to study hard ..., or else they don't give you a job or give you veli good money, you know!"

32k 的我
听得怦住了
回头偷望33k的孩子
才十来岁吧?
可怜的孩子
这么早就开始接受这种教育
望子成龙;应该!!
但为什么那么早就让孩子有这种念头?
为什么那么早就抹杀了他们的童真
为什么就不可以让他们好好享受做小孩子的乐趣?

我是妈妈的话
我是誓要反老还童
重过他们可有的童真
跟他们一起成长

还有..
我一定坚持孩子说中国话!!

后来我发觉,
孩子说的英文比妈妈来的好多了
我只觉得妈妈很羞.

就是媽媽的英文差,在外國受盡白眼,所以才對孩子寄予厚望,好讓媽媽有吐氣揚眉的一天。

Parents seemed to push their kids to hard nowadays! Especially asian family. I felt the pressure when I was home in Malaysia. For god's sake, Euan is only 3-month-old and they are already people told me I need to start teaching him math, music and foreighn languages. For crying out loud, he was only born into this world for 3 months bach then. But, I do agree with you about learning Chinese. The worst thing is when one forget his root. Euan gotto speak Chinese even he is only half chinese... hehehe... :P

LeMontEA :就是中文啦...只是写"中国话", 比较好形容!! 哈...

海市蜃樓:妈妈是很凶的那种!!说话像责骂似的!!不像受盡白眼的那种,多是势利那种!!

少俊: 哈..我赚,我赚,我赚赚赚.

ash: Really ? Poor Euan !! but tho according to research, 0-3motnhs, is the best time to learn. After that, they are not as receptive as they were. But learn as in not learning like in school, studying maths. Totally agree with you that we shall never forget our root ! I'll definitely speak Chinese with Euan if there is an opportunity to meet him in real. hehe..

势利是裝出來的,其實心裏是不平衡,自己做不到的全投入了孩子身上。

哈哈,我也不太敢跟孩子说英语,我怕我不准的英语发音会误导他们。^_^
