4on How does the first week of pre-nursery go at St. Jude's High School in Moula Ali?
dont know this school. ours (different school, a long time ago) let parents sit outside the class for the first week and the day was shorter for about 10 days. worth asking directly if they allow parents in at all, some places dont
2on Private tutor for MYP sciences, or does it clash with how the school marks?
cbse here so not the same. but our tutor also had his own format that didn't match what the school wanted. we sent him the school's marking sheet and asked him to work from that. half the tutors won't bother, ours did. if yours won't, that answers it
0on Nursery at a school in Yousufguda when we live in Secunderabad, sensible or not?
did a long school run for my son for two years in primary. he slept in the car every evening and we lost the time after school completely. wouldn't do it again at that age
0on Took our son on two school tours. He ranked them by the canteen and the slide
only child here, but when my son was that age he noticed things on visits that we completely missed. whether the kids in the corridor looked happy, whether anyone said hi to him. i'd ask him about that, not which school he liked. samosas is just the answer he had words for
4on my toddler's favourite outing is the JCB at the construction site down the road
lingampally station footbridge. trains every few minutes. my son did that for a whole year at that age
0on first year son wants a two-wheeler for college. we're in uppal
50 min by bus is maybe 35 on a bike but its the ORR stretch at 7 pm that would worry me too. could he ride to the metro and do the rest by train
0on 17 yr old wants a weekend job at a café while doing IB
honestly i'd be thrilled if mine wanted to spend a weekend on anything that wasn't a screen. what's the real worry, the marks or the tiredness? those are not the same problem
4on Toy library or toy rental anywhere near Madhapur?
we did toy swaps with two other families when my son was small. no subscription, and you know whose kid chewed what
2on 5 months and she's soaking through three bibs a day
son drooled like this from about 4 months and the first tooth came at 9. so it can go on a while. we patted his chin dry instead of wiping, wiping made the rash worse. doctor gave us a cream that helped, ask yours
1on Daycare near home or near my office, now that I'll be in three days a week?
two hours a day in the car is a lot of your day too. ours was near home and the one time i needed to get there fast it was pouring and i didn't make it anyway 🤷
0on Elder son thinks cloud certifications will get him a job faster than a degree. I work in cloud
mine is 13 and already quoting the same videos. no answers, just solidarity 🤷
4on Bedtime story duty has passed to our 11 year old, and every episode ends on a cliffhanger
mine would have started charging per episode by now. enjoy it while it's free
2on Fourteen private university stalls and nothing else. Is that what a school career fair is now?
ours had stalls in class 8. class 8. son came home with three pens and a keychain
1on Grade 10 work-experience week has placed her at a bank. She asked for anything outdoors
my son's school had a one-day job shadow last year and he got an accounts office. came back saying he never wants a desk job. that's also useful information 🤷
1on Son's class 6 timetable has 'AI' twice a week. What do they do in it?
my son had it in 7th. one month of scratch then a lot of 'write a prompt for this'. he says prompt writing is just english comprehension backwards
2on he wants to watch one surgery before deciding on medicine. hospital says not under 18
lol at wanting the drill, my 13 yr old would say the same. opd is where he'll find out if he likes talking to people all day though, that's the part nobody tells them
0on partner's home this year and somehow my weekend calls feel worse now
known thing. same setup here for over a year. the guilt didnt go away it just changed shape. now its less about my son and more that my partner sees exactly how much i work
3on Campus QA job or straight into an M.Sc? Our daughter has to decide before placements start
agree with the now part but it's not the only route. plenty of people in my office went back for a part time masters in their 30s, it's hard but it happens. depends a lot on whether her field needs it to move up or just likes it
we had this with cousins one summer. my son did his own sheets in the morning and the older cousin was allowed to mark them with a red pen in the evening. the red pen was the whole attraction. he got more careful because he didn't want her circling things
3on Waist-length hair since she was a baby, and now she wants a chin-length cut
Let her. It grows back. The grandmother will have a new topic by July.
