Grade Over Health

Okay, this is really weird:

While 72.2 percent of parents rated academic performance as “extremely important”, only 10.9 percent cited “health condition” as “extremely important” according to a survey released Sunday.

Are this article telling that your children should strive hard on SPM exam, when your children have some critical healthy problems like cancer or pulmonary lung disease? Alhamdulillah because this is not happening in Malaysia. Hong Kong moms are really have to change their mindset because good grade is not No.1. Good grade is not everything; your children is everything. Healthy children leads to healthy grades.

To me, I always concern about the children’s health first. It’s my responsibility as a parent to make sure my children stay that way.
