this morning in the car, marcus blurted out that doing assessment is like practising, practising for the exams. wah, i wasted no chance in telling him

precisely that is why i need him to practise his school work. then i bring in the example of him playing his golf, learn to play golf, but no practice, how to improve?

my driving, if i learn driving, pass driving, never practise, how to improve?

if we never practice, we will not only not improve but it will become worse, then i use mil as an example to illustrate to marcus. Yes, the practice is difficult, but once u give up, it will become worse.

i asked him to reconsider his challenge and he will give me the answer later today.

sigh, trying my very best to make him wake up. u know the suffering i have in me, on one hand, i know i'm taking a big risk as i'm using his results as a gamble. but i know, i have to give him some challenge. i know that he may have to learn things the hard way. it's really difficult to be a mum.
