New School New Life!!!

What a change!!!

The change of school of my daughter Sindhu has really changed her life style totally.

She has to now leave home at the time her dad leaves, which is 7.15 am around. It is only 5 days since her school started and her dad has been out for 4 days. His pool partner whose son also is in the same class has taken charge of dropping the kids.

Harish who used to seldom see his dad during weekdays nowadays doesn't get to see even his sister. Less fights, more missing, more love perhaps. Once they are gone, he is leisurely getting ready and leaving for his school.

Sindhu's coaching class has stubbornly not agreed to change the schedule to the preferred one until 26th of June which makes this batch attend their classes even on weekdays for this week, their first week at the new school. They are stressed out too much - new school, new friends, new teachers, new schedule, new lessons... that too on various subjects from both the quarters. God, no time even to think what they are doing. Especially last 2 days was too too hectic because of a stay back in school. They were out of home from morning 7 am till night 9.30pm, God, isn't this too much for this young kids? This was not the chosen schedule actually. Thank God, He guided Sindhu take the right choice of week end batch.

Two more days she has to manage this full day schedule, after that she will settle down. They need breathing space. They can't suffocate themselves with classes all day long. Working full day doesn't mean 100% effort. For the effort be fruitful, it should be wise effort. Compressing the whole day of the kid with classes doesn't mean the kid is learning a lot. He is spending time, he is not sure of learning. I have always felt so and have never put her into tight tuition schedules. She had done her X boards in a very comfortable fashion, enjoying herself, enjoying learning on her own.

Now her mind doesn't open at all to learn anything, as it is craving for rest. I can see it vividly. Poor girl doesn't complain, just mentions and gets going. Only relief for both of us is that it is for 2 more days only. Then her school will be from Monday to Friday and her coaching class will be on Saturdays and Sundays. She will have time.

This situation will change!!!!
