"Hey, your school has been mentioned in the newspaper," I shouted to my son. I showed him the paragraph where the principal mentioned that XYZ school uses motivational speeches and Homework Clubs to help children deal with exam stress.
My 10-yr old literally dived into the paper to read the article but when he emerged from the papers he wore a patently unimpressed expression.
"Well," he said shrugging his shoulders, " motivational speeches just means random babbling by the Principal on assorted topics. Homework Clubs? They are no fun .... they are menial!"
Thank you very much, young man, for sharing your views.
