Re: Pressure From Parents

My parents give me money as a bribe to do well in my exams/assessments.

What they don't know is that I want to do well anyway. So its a win-win situation.


I do get a lot of pressure from my mum to do well though. I think she has high expectations now I've already got one band 6 =/


edit: BTW I'm not asian haha

Re: Pressure From Parents

I think my parents know that if they try to push me I'll just yell back at them saying "Don't put so much pressure on me!"

I think it's better that they don't say anything because I push myself so I won't let them down. Reverse pyschology works on me, I think.

Re: Pressure From Parents

But at this age those kinds of situations should be avoided through proper dialogue and explanation by both sides expressing their views, and thus coming to an agreement.

Because it'd be alright if he was younger? Nice.
I remember getting beaten [not abused] when I was younger when I did something wrong or when I didn't do what I was told. It was used to discipline me. I don't feel bitter about it at all. I have no scars or anything.

It really depends what kind of beating we are talking about.

Yes, there's a difference between some light to moderate smacks to shock a child into discipline and totally abusing a child with violence.

This year, I've started to get math/chem/phys textbooks as a reward for doing well.

Re: Pressure From Parents

If you're doing well wouldn't that be a sign saying you're fine with the resources you have already?

uhh...beating at any age? see, beating is probably the wrong word to use actually...maybe a bit too strong...
What about smacking?

EDIT: hahahaha aaron you're a tool
lol, but i think its ok, to get physical, as long as its not like owning them on the ground.

Clips around the year, smacks on the head are ok.
