Met them for the first time today. 5 of them. Innova JC. shall not mention their names because one of them is a "STAR" (better not have too much publicity, right!?). LOL! Only they will get the joke! Anyway, I got to know them because of Ai Li, the Straits Times reporter who reported about homeschooling. They are nice but rather (shy!? - I think they are actually very chatty but paiseh only) people :) thoughtful enough to buy us a cake (we coincidentally bought the same one in the morning! so we are blessed with 2 cakes in our fridge :P). was hoping to help them out as much as possible so that they can do well for their Project Work. They chose modernisation in education? who knows 5 years down the road, home-schooling will be even more prevalent in S'pore! That would be really good news! :)

Christian willl be attached to RV Pri for at least 4 weeks to join a CCA (hopefully it's badminton - he loves to play and is pretty good at it) so that they can verify if their assumption about the social aspect of homeschooling kids is true.

They reminded me of my ex-students whom I dearly miss. They reminded me of my JC days too. life was easier then. PW? what is that? we never did such a thing! :P Time has changed and life is getting more stressful, isn't it? well, at least, one thing can stand the test of time, which is why we are home-schooling our kids: relationship. what is more worthwhile than that? :)

I remembered when I was interviewed by another group of JC students (2 years back) on the effectiveness of sexual education in schools that I replied firmly it should be scraped long ago because what teens really need is love education, learning how to be loved and to love :) you agree with me?

I think as to the effectiveness of sex ed...
We still need it, because otherwise people won't know how to stay safe. I think we need more peer discussions on love and relationships DURING sex ed., though. :)

relevance of sex education
i vote stoutly for it to stay because simply: the more it is not taught, not discussed openly, the more curious youths become, the greater their desire to explore their sexualities in ways and contexts deemed "inappropriate"

love education
I beg to differ. If a teenager feels loved, he/she will understand that sex is an appropriate act within marriage and they want to love their spouse-to-be by being chaste.

If it has to be taught, it should be the parents doing it, not schools :)
