[quote=JABAROOTOO,301707]There are now all too many of this next generation of 'Little Emperors" who make everyone around them 'eat bitter' with their selfish and disrespectful behaviour towards parents, grandparents and other elders. It amazes me what is acceptable behaviour from some of the 'darlings' that I teach. One boy aptly named 'Clever' by his mother was pushing another student near the top of the stairs. I cought this action and called him back to my room where I gave him gentle dose of the same. What was his reaction to me. A very stern rebuke of NO all this in Chinese of course as he learns very little in class. I think he is clever at maths or science, but I cannot be sure. So using Chinese I also explained that just as I should not do this, neither could he do this to the other children. I was surprised that he had such well developed personal boundaries but I suspect that no-one is teaching him to respect others in the same way. I also agree wholeheartedly with the comments on the Chinese Education Model. It really only works at all well for Chinese language acquisition but for all other subjects it is producing little in the way of self motivated free thinkers but of course this is what communism and similar ideologies thrive on.[/quote]
