I was so heart broken when I saw you sobbing when we picked you up from Wushu yesterday. You said that you were punished again. Sigh.. you have been asking to be allowed to quit Wushu but we have been resisting, trying to instil upon you that you cannot give up so easily when faced with challenges.
I half wanted to march up to the hall and give the instructor a piece of my mind. But I stopped and as Ah kong had stopped right in front of the gate at that moment, we quickly hopped into the car
The moment Ah Kong saw you crying and found out it was due to the pumishment, he mumbled that you should quit Wushu but I quickly interrupted and told him to let daddy and I talk to you.
Had some time to think rationally about the reason you would be punished and so first thing we did was to go upstairs to discuss the situation. I asked many questions and found out that the reason you were punished was mainly because of a step that you did not learn when it was first taught as we were on holidays in US. So after giving you many examples on why you should not quit, we agreed that I would go see the instructor to ask him to teach you the steps properly and that you'd ask your classmate to go through the steps with you in the week also.
Daddy also spoke to you on not giving up so easily when faced with challenges. Hopefully you'll have a better session next Saturday. And hopefully it will serve as a lesson for you not to give up so easily too.
