Enroll to school

Sometimes mommy feels pity to the kids in this modern era, they are still 18 months or even less but they already go to school...
And most of the reasons that come from mommies is it's better going to school 'cos the school will have some activities better than staying at home, making the house messy or do nothing useful
Worse, they expect the school does the magic for their kids, for eg after they enroll the kids to the school, they will be able to do toilet training, self feeding, put the shoes, brush the teeth  etc

I guess there's something wrong with mommies....kids have long way to go to school...imagine primary school 6 years, secondary 4 years, JC 2 years, University 4 years they have at least spending 16 years in school

For me, I prefer to delay his schooling and staying at home with mommy.
For what I believe home is still the best school after all and parents are the best teacher. Outside, school is just a supplement for kids to develop their social skills and facing the real world.
But until the kids are ready for that, there's no hurry to enroll them to school.

There are many activities that we can teach them at home, from simple household activities, plays, reading, games or observation at outdoor. Of course mommy needs to take a part as well finding interesting activities
And it's very fun when mommy becomes like a teacher at home....
Mommy knows more about his characters, strengths and weaknesses and how to handle Richie.

The best place for Richie to learn is still home and the best teacher for Richie is still mommy and daddy
