Couple of days back,my kindergarten kid was playing with his small board and a marker.At home,he always wants to take teacher's seat!A harassed mother i'am!..don't have any other option!I obey his orders..else the outcome will be a long face and frowny eyes with full of anger!
Suddenly he said"Look at the board"..At first i didn't heed to his instruction.Then came the second call! STUDENTS...Look at the board I SAY! An unnecessary punch on Students &I say(instead of look at the board!)I asked him...who taught you to say 'Students'? Within a fraction of second,came his innocent reply.."At school my teacher tell like this only"
Again i asked..Tell me Baby,.."whether your teacher addresses you and your classmates as Students or children?
Without any hesitation,he answered 'My teacher calls us Students and not Children"
I pondered..why these blooming buds are treated and addressed as students?why can't the teachers impart the language of Love and affection?Is it possible for the elders to put an end to their rusty narrow thoughts?

/u have drawn a very clear picture of a frustuated student and a harassed mother ....:P/
i have skipped the real important point ...till u explained...
u r a very observant parent...
sadly...i have no answer for ur question ...
so true.. but alas.. its not easy to do any thing about it.. its all about bringing awareness in parents but most of them are too busy and ignorant while earning Jam for the bread that they don't even observe like you did..
would like to see more frequent posts in this blog :))
Thats a nice post, i guess choice of words make a big difference to people and defining their lives...And especially from teachers, who have a big impact on their lives..
