I'm not raising children the "local" way.
2010-12-30 9:23PM / 標準BLOG
That's it. I'm not. The locals I've seen in Hong Kong are crazy. CRAZY.
Today, a lady came to me with her son who was slightly below average in height and she wanted to give him HORMONE injections so he could grow taller, to "fit in". Her son is 5.
I assessed him nutritionally and figured he wasn't eating all that healthily (rice and fish floss for breakfast?)...This is just one of many incidents that show how ignorant and how crazy Hong Kong parents are. 1-year-olds are forced into interviews (I kid you not
) to get into "prestigious" preschools. 3-year-olds already have a "portfolio" or "resume" to enrol into kindergarten. I'm not against prestigious schools nor am I against smart kids starting early in this world. What I'm concerned about is that locals here seem to have it upside down or backwards.
Case in point: 7-year-olds don't know how to tie their shoelaces because their maid does it for them every morning. I've seen local kids hit their mother on the subway without their mother scolding them back! Few kids here like reading books (I was scolded when I thought about getting some easy-read novels for MrAC's younger cousins. WTF?
). I have kids coming into the clinic- KIDS- who are anxious and suffer physical ailments (teeth-grinding, tummy aches, vomiting regularly) because they're overly stressed.Does anyone else see a problem with this?!?!

Finally settled in...

Sorry, I've been MIA lately.
But I'm happy to say I've finally moved into my new place 
(we bought this time, so hopefully, no more moves... for a while ). I'm definitely enjoying the ample green space and quietness here. 
Doesn't look like Hong Kong, does it?

HOW MY DOG GOT FAT THIS PAST MONTH
2010-10-08 12:05AM / 標準BLOG
I'm the one who usually feeds Bella but due to my recent illness(es), that responsibility was given to MrAC. I thought Bella gained a tummy these past few weeks and thought that someone was feeding Bella a little too much.
Little did I know that BELLA was the one who was FEEDING herself when she was home alone- THROUGH THIS HOLE SHE CHEWED OUT OF HER DOG FOOD BAG!!!! THESE 2 PHOTOS SAY IT ALL:
We found this big hole today.
The hole was facing a cart (on the other side), so we weren't aware of it... until today! No wonder she always went into her doggie room. We thought she was only sniffing around! I don't know if I'd say she's smart or just a glutton (seriously, she's always tailing us for food and we think the poor little thing must be soooo hungry being home alone all day!)- but one thing's for sure... We shouldn't keep our eyes off her even for a second! Do not be fooled by her cute, innocent look!!!
