only. Enourage the kids to write short stories,do math(like learn to calculate 2^10 , 2^20, sum of internal angles of a polygon), play ball games(team spirit) and play piano or violin. Foreign languages should be only taught at 2ndary level unless the kids have early inclination

I've 2 female english teacher friends(in HK)who studied english in UK but I just found out at a wedding banquet they can't flirt in english(not that they're shy, one of them doesnt mind using the F-word). 'Well endowed' sounds puzzling to them.

I explained to them is quite alrite to tell the bride:' I'm enchanted' and the bridegroom:"You're the luckiest man in the world'

Such words of courtesy didnt enter their minds.So much for the HK parents' english craze for their kids
