Navigating the Wide, Wild Web
The internet is an essential part of our daily routines - we rely on it to stay informed, shop, and even connect with loved ones back home. But we also need to be mindful of the safety challenges the internet poses for our children. Let’s look into how we can help our children navigate this "wild" digital world safely!
The Good Change
Through working as a teaching assistant in local primary schools, I met many students and parents from Hong Kong, and I am spotting a trend: academic success doesn't always correlate with the development of qualities like kindness and resilience. In fact, when parents get too obsessed with the pursuit of good grades, they might overlook their children’s character development, leaving the children ill-prepared for the challenges of adulthood. But moving to the UK brings about room for change for both the children and their parents. How to seize this chance for change? Let’s have a look now!
Heart of the Matter
Once we arrived in the UK, it did not matter whether we had been star students of the best schools in Hong Kong, or well-established professionals. That is right: this is a brand new game, and we all have to find new ways to play - starting from a change of our hearts.
