Are Singapore children missing out on a full and happy childhood all because of a need to get ahead in school?

well, people may say the amount of homework, CCA involvement and enrichment activities are too much for a pitiful teenager to handle. but you have to face reality, the world is so competitive. you won't be able to handle stress in working life if you don't start adapting now.

school life provides you the all-rounded education vital to survival in the industry. hey no ones looking for any all A students already, what employers are looking for is the whole package. better still, you be your own employer not employee.

furthermore, many teenagers apparently do not know how to manage their time properly. TIME MANAGEMENT people, it increases efficiency in completing work and even allows time for recreation / social activities. before someone starts saying that im a random passerby who doesnt know nuts about this, i used to prioritise using the computer, watching TV, etc ahead of my homework. and when homework's due, i rush like mad. now at least i am more sensible to complete homework first, and i realise that even so, i still have quite a lot of spare time to do whatever i want.

i find that many people exaggerate this issue. i seriously dont believe students that say they are slapped with homework, CCA, enrichment, tuition and have to do their homework once they come home from school, burning the midnight oil and having only 3 hours of sleep daily. if its really true, IT PROBABLY SHOWS THAT THEY NEED SOME TIME MANAGEMENT COURSES.

even as a student, regardless of age, everyone can find happy childhood ;x

even if one aint a student anymore, there's always childhood memories.
but of cos, depends on what kinda childhood memories you're mentioning here.

for me, im 20 already & im crazily in love with doraemon/s.
many asys i've got no childhood memories cos i buy doraemons & chiong doraemon shows.
boo :cry3:

n im very sure everyone has got own individual childhood memories.
like before you attend school, u have that memories.
maybe its only after you're in school, den u feel so tied to school?
